Maika Monroe at the Cannes Film Festival 2026, at the Carlton Cannes

12 May 2026, opening day of the Festival · Carlton Cannes

On 12 May 2026, the opening day of the 79th Cannes Film Festival, Jeremy Jakubowicz photographed Maika Monroe at the Carlton Cannes. The actress was in Cannes for Victorian Psycho, by Zachary Wigon, presented in Un Certain Regard. In a sculptural sequinned Ashi Studio gown and Pasquale Bruni jewellery, she poses before a floral installation between the palace’s marble columns, then on the forecourt among the black saloons: classic screen glamour in the late-afternoon light.

At the same festival, Jeremy Jakubowicz also photographed Eva Longoria, Noah Schnapp, Renate Reinsve and Lucas Bravo and Alex Pettyfer.
