Collider Interviews | Chloë Sevigny Interview: Having a Brat Summer & Making Bonjour, Tristesse @ColliderInterviews | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
Summertime sadness makes its way to the screen with Durga Chew-Bose’s feature directorial debut, Bonjour Tristesse. This first-time director celebrated the world premiere of her film at the Toronto International Film Festival with the cast members she tells us were pivotal in bringing her own spin to this 1954 coming-of-age novel.
Based on the novel of the same name by Françoise Sagan, the dreamy film follows the story of 18-year-old Cécile (Lily McInerny), who spends the holidays getting sun-kissed by the French seaside. She’s not alone — joining her is her devilishly charming father, Raymond (Claes Bang), and his youthful Bohemian lover, Elsa (Naïlia Harzoune). But when her peaceful world is interrupted by the presence of her late mother’s friend (Chloë Sevigny), a remarkably stylish and sociable fashion designer, Cécile slowly receives several rude awakenings about the fabulous society she's surrounded by.
Our own Perri Nemiroff had the opportunity to discuss Bonjour Tristesse when writer-director Chew-Bose and cast members McInerny, Bang, and Sevigny stopped by the Collider interview studio at the Cinema Center at MARBL. During their conversation, they share how each member of the cast was pivotal for Chew-Bose's vision for the adaptation, the challenges they overcame while filming on location, discovering their characters, and Sevigny's brat summer in Charli XCX's music video.

![Matt Reeves Reveals If The Batman Part 2 Is The End of His Dark Knight Saga [Exclusive]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mlqt_IzHhXs/hqdefault.jpg "Matt Reeves Reveals If The Batman Part 2 Is The End of His Dark Knight Saga [Exclusive]
In a recent interview with Colliders Steve Weintraub for The Penguin, Matt Reeves confirmed that his original vision for The Batman was always part of a larger trilogy, and The Batman Part II is just another chapter in the Dark Knight’s journey. Reeves reaffirmed that his plan for a trilogy remains intact, despite some recalibrations along the way. Weintraub asked if the trilogy was still in the cards after the success of the first film. Yes, that is still the plan, Reeves said, confidently. I mean, it’s sticking very closely to the path we envisioned.
The success of The Batman was partly due to its clear direction, and fans were curious if Reeves had made adjustments to his long-term vision, especially with the introduction of The Penguin spin-off series, which sees Colin Farrell reprise the titular role of Oz Cobb from The Batman. Reeves acknowledged that while things have shifted slightly, the core of the trilogy’s trajectory remains the same. He explained:
Things kind of shifted. So, when we came up with the idea to do The Penguin, that was something where I had always intended to continue Penguins story, and wanted to tell this story of his beginning of rise to power. Because we know that hes introduced in The Batman as a kind of mid-level, sort of overlooked, mocked figure, whos not yet in anyones eyes the kingpin we come to know him as in the lore. And so, that was deliberate because I wanted— whereas it wasnt Batmans origin story, I wanted the origin stories of these other characters, of the Rogues Gallery and that story was originally going to be the entrée into the next movie.
The Penguin Will Be a True Continuation of The Batman
The Penguin in The Batman looking up from papers at someone off-camera. When discussing what he calls the Batman Epic Crime Saga with HBOs Chief Content Officer Casey Bloys and Head of Originals Sarah Aubrey, Reeves noted their excitement not only about the upcoming films but also the potential for the Penguin series to expand the story, explaining that there wasnt a need to hold everything back for the big screen. He told Collider:
