Think Big: After “Yannick” and “Daaaaaali!”, Quentin Dupieux Looking to Film Next Feature in English

Date:

July 26, 2023

A small end of interview snip-it from the Troiscouleurs folks informs us that Quentin Dupieux is looking to switch things up a bit – looking to film in English once again and has been working on a project that is a larger budget. Dupieux is currently in promo-mode first getting ready for the Locarno premiere for Yannick (which is tied to a theatrical release back in France) and will then move over to Venice Film Festival with Daaaaaali! – which was just selected as a Out of Competition title. This follows a just as remarkable 2022 where he also dropped a pair in Mandibles and Incredible but True. That is all we have on the project which would most likely surface in 2025 if funding and cast come together for 2024. Are the A24 folks listening?
