Directed by Karim Aïnouz, Firebrand was receiving its first official screening as it plays in-competition for the prestigious Palm d’Or at this year’s ceremony.
A screenplay by Jessica and Henrietta Ashworth, Firebrand is based on the 2013 novel Queen’s Gambit by Elizabeth Fremantle.
It focuses on the story of Catherine Parr, the sixth and final wife of Henry VIII, who was King of England from 22 April 1509 until his death in 1547.
The project is Karim Aïnouz’s first directorial work in the English language.
Firebrand was announced during the 2021 American Film Market, with Michelle Williams first due to star alongside Jude in the lead roles.
However, Alicia later replaced Michelle as Catherine Parr in March 2022, while Jude plays Henry VIII.

In May the same year, Sam Riley was announced as Thomas Seymour, Eddie Marsan as Edward Seymour, Simon Russell Beale as Stephen Gardiner and Erin Doherty as Anne Askew.
Filming for the movie started in April last year, with production taking place in Hadden Hall in Bakewell, Derbyshire until June.
The official synopsis reads: ‘In blood-soaked Tudor England, Katherine Parr, the sixth and last wife of King Henry VIII, is named Regent while tyrant Henry is fighting overseas.
‘Katherine has done everything she can to push for a new future based on her radical Protestant beliefs.
‘When an increasingly ailing and paranoid King returns, he turns his fury on the radicals, charging Katherine’s childhood friend with treason and burns her at the stake.
‘Horrified and grieving, but forced to deny it, Katherine finds herself fighting for her own survival. Conspiracy reverberates through the palace.

‘Everyone holds their breath – for the queen to slip up, for Henry to take her head like wives before.
‘With the hope for a future free of tyranny at risk, will Katherine submit to the inevitable for the sake of King and country?’
This year’s festival promises a Cote d’Azur buffet of spectacle, scandal and cinema set to be served over the next 12 days.
It’s unspooling against the backdrop of labor unrest. Protests that have roiled France in recent months over changes to its pension system are planned to run during the festival, albeit at a distance from the festival’s main hub.
Meanwhile, an ongoing strike by screenwriters in Hollywood could have unpredictable effects on the French Riviera festival.
But with a festival lined with some much-anticipated big-budget films, including James Mangold’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of the Destiny and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, the party is sure to go on, regardless.
