Zlotowski also wrote the film, along with French novelist Anne Berest, and Gaëlle Macé.

This actually seems like a great fit for Foster, who’s something of a Francophile herself. The California-born actor is fluent in French and starred in another French-language film, Moi, Fleur Bleue, when she was only 15 years old. Variety also notes that Foster delivered a speech alongside French President Emmanuel Macron at the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Paris in August. She was also presented with an honorary Palme at the Cannes Film Festival in 2011.

In other casting news this week, spinoffs of both The Office and The Big Bang Theory rounded out their casts, and actors like Stephen Graham, Kevin Costner, Aaron Pierre, and Sydney Sweeney landed their next roles.
