The first images from Paolo Sorrentino’s new, as yet untitled film set in Naples have been released. Scroll down to see the stunning first images from the production, which are a mix of stills and behind-the-scenes footage.
As previously announced, the film revolves around a character named Partenope, who, in Sorrentino’s own words, takes the name of her city, but is not a siren or the mythical figure associated with the creation of Naples.
The film tells Partenope’s journey from her birth in 1950 to the present day, accompanied by a host of other characters, against the backdrop of Sorrentino’s hometown of Naples, which can both charm and harm.
The cast includes Gary Oldman, Celeste Dalla Porta, Silvia Degrandi, Isabella Ferrari, Lorenzo Gleijeses, Peppe Lanzetta, Silvio Orlando, Luisa Ranieri, Stefania Sandrelli, Alfonso Santagata, Nello Mascia and Biagio Izzo.
The film follows Sorrentino’s deeply personal, Oscar-nominated 2021 drama Hand of God and is his tenth film in a filmography that also includes the 2014 Oscar winner The great beauty.
Shot between Naples and the island of Capri, the film is an Italian-French co-production written and directed by Sorrentino.
This is a Fremantle film produced by Lorenzo Mieli for The Apartment Pictures, a Fremantle company. Anthony Vaccarello for Saint Laurent, Paolo Sorrentino for Numero 10 and Ardavan Safaee for Pathé. Douglas Urbanski is the executive producer. Distribution is via UTA and Fremantle.
