Thursday morning in Cannes, Julia Louis-Dreyfus will sit for a live Awards Chatter interview at Meta House, tracing her career from Saturday Night Live to recent film and voice work.
The appearance is part of a broader Cannes push around animated feature "Tangles," in which the 65-year-old voices Midge and helps position the film for festival and awards-season attention.
The hour-long taping with host Scott Feinberg will be followed by a reception, putting Louis-Dreyfus in front of international press and industry attendees on the Croisette.
"Tangles" has drawn early interest at Cannes, with sales agent Charades fielding distribution inquiries for the film, which features an ensemble voice cast including Bryan Cranston and Seth Rogen.
The event extends a late-career expansion for Louis-Dreyfus, whose 11 Primetime Emmy Awards and recent podcast and animation work have kept her prominent beyond television comedy.
