Tribeca Festival Has Star-Studded Line-Up
The Tribeca Festival is back in full force this year with a hybrid lineup of in-person and virtual screenings thanks to the Tribeca At Home app, a streaming version of the festival.
The Tribeca Festival is an annual event that showcases a diverse range of films and filmmakers from around the world. Not only are there some incredible films on the slate, but the festival boasts a plethora of in-person events, masterclasses, speaker engagements, and a slew of celebrity guests.
The 2022 Tribeca Festival Talks, Reunions, and Master Class line-up will include conversations with names like Taylor Swift, Steve Aoki, Pharrell Williams, Seth Meyers, and Cynthia Erivo, as well as directors Adam McKay, Tyler Perry, and Julian Schnabel.
Jennifer Lopez is set to open the festival with her Netflix documentary Halftime on June 8, which is directed by Oscar-nominated Amanda Micheli (Vegas Baby). Lopez will host the film’s world premiere at Tribeca, and it will then stream on June 14.
The festival will also recognize our industry’s most celebrated films via Reunions. Headliners for screenings and panels will feature Robert De Niro and Al Pacino examining Heat along with the cast and showrunners for Eve’s Bayou and Velvet Goldmine, with both films celebrating a 25th Anniversary. In honor of the 50th Anniversary of The Godfather, Tribeca will feature and screen a remastered version of the film.
The Tribeca Festival will screen 12 days of events and experiences across New York City with an extraordinary lineup of films, concerts, performances, and talks. Some of the locations include the Pier 57, Spring Studios, Beacon Theater, SVA Theatre, Village East by Angelika, Cinépolis Chelsea, the United Palace, Battery Park City, BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center, and Waterfront Plaza at Brookfield Place. An Al Sharpton-centric documentary, Loudmouth, will close the ceremony on June 18, and there will be a gala screening of B.J. Novak’s Vengeance.
Tribeca Festival is from June 8 – 19, with tickets on sale here, and the Tribeca At Home platform will stream programs from June 9 – 26, with signup available here.
