The 81st annual Venice International Film Festival will start on August 28 in Italy, featuring a star-studded lineup of new movies to showcase. Among the titles is Maria, a drama in which Jolie plays the real-life opera diva Maria Callas. The film is directed by Pablo Larrain, who previously guided Natalie Portman and Kristen Stewart to Oscar nominations for Jackie (2016) and Spencer (2021).
