Five rising stars to watch in Cannes

Keoghan overcame a difficult childhood – his mother died of drug overdose when he was 12 and he was raised in foster homes – and became one of Ireland's most sought-after actors.

She earned Oscar and Golden Globe nominations, and won a BAFTA for her role in 'The Banshees of Inishrein' and reached new levels of fame with the highly regarded hit 'Saltburn'.

Keoghan, 31, is coming to Cannes with “Birds,” a coming-of-age story set in suburban England from Oscar winner Andrea Arnold, who reportedly gave up a role in “Gladiator 2” for the role.

He has gained immense blockbuster fame by playing the role of Joker in 'The Batman Part II' which is coming in 2026.
