Charles Melton Attends First Film Festival for New Movie 'May December' at Cannes Film Festival

Charles Melton wears a white tuxedo jacket while stepping out for the 2023 Cannes Film Festival premiere of his new movie May December held at Palais des Festivals on Saturday (May 20) in Cannes, France.

The 32-year-old Riverdale actor joined his co-stars Natalie Portman, Julianne Moore and Cory Michael Smith, as well as director Todd Haynes.

The next day, the cast and director stepped out for their film’s photo call and press conference at the festival.

Charles was also seen in attendance at the 2023 Kering Women in Motion Awards on Sunday (May 21), and at the Discover Red with Campari event on Saturday (May 20), where he met up with Luke Evans.

This is actually Charles‘ first film festival, and what a first it is!

In May December, per Variety, Julianne and Natalie “anchor the intense portrait of the scandalous romance of an older woman (Moore) and her young employee (Melton). Almost 20 years after the affair made headlines, the couple are preparing to send their almost-adult children off to college. At the same time, a movie star (Portman) comes to study the family for an upcoming film about their lives.”
