Rachel McAdams stepped out in the sun-drenched French Riviera red carpet for the photocall of Midnight in Paris at Cannes International Film Festival on the Promenade de la Croisette.

The 32 year-old actress looked flawless in a short sleeve white dress with floral details on the shoulders and pockets from Maxime Simoens.

The Woody Allen film costarring McAdams, Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Michael Sheen, Marion Cotillard and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is opening the world’s largest film festival tonight.

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming Woody Allen film Midnight in Paris.

This movie looks like it could be pretty fun, it’s certainly out of the realm of Woody Allen normality. The time travel/parallel universe factor looks like it will work really well for this offbeat movie. Not to mention the fact that the movie has a stellar cast, this should be interesting.

Woody Allen’s newest film finally has a title, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger. The film stars Antonio Banderas, Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts, Gemma Jones, Lucy Punch, and Freida Pinto.

So today, months after the shoot has ended, it’s news that Woody Allen’s newest movie has a title. You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, which sounds either like a prophecy or a threat, will be coming out in about a year.

It’s strange how long it takes for him to decide on a title to his films. I have no clue what this movie is about, but the cast is enough for my interest to be peaked.

Josh Brolin has been cast in Woody Allen‘s next film along with Anthony Hopkins.

Woody Allen�has set�Josh Brolin�and�Anthony Hopkins�to star in the film he wrote and will shoot in London this summer.

Brolin and Hopkins are the first in an ensemble cast. As usual, Allen is keeping title and plot under wraps.

There’s really no way to tell what the film could be about, but I’m sure it will have lots of long single shots of people talking to one another.�
