Todd Haynes to Receive Prestigious Carrosse d’Or at Cannes Directors’ Fortnight

The acclaimed filmmaker will be honored on May 14, 2025, for his groundbreaking contributions to cinema, as his next project faces delays.

Todd Haynes has been confirmed as the 2025 recipient of the Carrosse d’Or, a lifetime achievement award presented by the Society of French Directors.
The award ceremony will take place during the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight on May 14, 2025.
Haynes is being recognized for his innovative storytelling and his focus on social, racial, and gender representation in films such as 'Carol' and 'Far From Heaven.'
Earlier this year, Haynes served as president of the Berlin Film Festival jury, awarding the Golden Bear to Dag Johan Haugerud’s 'Dreams.'
His next film, a 1930s gay romance, remains on hold following Joaquin Phoenix’s departure from the project.
