Here are some photos of Michael Fassbender & Marion Cotillard at the photocall and premiere of Macbeth at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday. I’ve been waiting to see Fassy all week, and he’s literally been at Cannes since last weekend, although this is the first premiere he’s attended. His first public appearance at an official event was Thursday night, at the amfAR gala. Then he spent Friday recovering, so he looked relatively well-rested (not really) for Saturday’s activities. I think he looked better in the photocall pics rather than the premiere pics. There’s something about Fassy in a tuxedo that just doesn’t jive. He just doesn’t seem like he’s in his natural habitat while wearing a tux.
As for Marion, she wore a totally fug Ulyana Sergeenko jumpsuit at the photocall. It looks like the cheap Target pajamas college girls wore in the ‘90s. By that I mean I’m sure the jumpsuit is considered fashion-forward somehow (but looks so dated to me). For the premiere, she wore a custom Dior mini and Chopard jewels. Pretty.
As I said, it was almost like Fassy was in hiding for the past week. He was probably holed up with his current girlfriend, Alicia Vikander, although Cannes was littered with his former lovers (Zoe Kravitz, Madalina Ghenea). From the way he looks in these photos, I would say he was probably partying quite heavily this week. He did manage to crawl out of the bottle and do some press for Macbeth – you can read some interviews here and here. There’s nothing really new. He already said that he played Macbeth like the character suffered from PTSD. There are some new clips too, but we still don’t have a trailer. Here’s a scene from the coronation:
It looks… interesting. The reviews coming out of Cannes are pretty great too.
PS… Look at Fassy and Marion’s body language. Do you think they’re hooking up, or have hooked up in the past? I’m not seeing it. Their body language says (to me) that they’re close but they haven’t slept together.
