George Clooney, Jodie Foster and Ryan Gosling also among the stars heading to France this summer
Hollywood better start booking their Riviera yachts quick, because Cannes 2016 is going to be jam-packed with US stars this year.
Steven Spielberg's The BFG starring British Oscar winner Mark Rylance will be shown at the annual film festival, along with Woody Allen's new movie Cafe Society and Jodie Foster's Money Monster, starring George Clooney.
The Nice Guys starring Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe will also be revealed as part of the 'Out of Competition' line-up, while Sean Penn-directed movie The Last Face is in the Competition selection.
British directors Ken Loach and Andrea Arnold also have films in the Competition mix, with I, Daniel Blake and American Honey respectively.
Star Wars actor Adam Driver is also featured in the shortlist, starring in new Jim Jarmusch film Paterson.
