Demi Moore Set as Chopard’s Godmother for Cannes

Demi Moore just added another glamorous outing to her Cannes itinerary.

The actress is set to serve as the godmother of the Trophée Chopard ceremony for the luxe jeweler at the Carlton Beach Club on May 17. Created in 2001 by Chopard’s co-president and artistic director Caroline Scheufele, the Trophée Chopard is given annually during the festival “to an actress or actor at the start of their career” as a way to promote the big screen’s next generation and underscore Chopard’s commitment to cinema.

Previous recipients of the honor include Marion Cotillard, Léa Seydoux, Diane Kruger, Niels Schneider, Florence Pugh and Jessie Buckley. Last year, Natalie Portman served in the godmother role and handed trophies to honorees Naomi Ackie and Daryl McCormack. The ceremony is typically an A-list affair as it’s an official dinner of the festival and is a joint invitation of fest president Iris Knobloch, Cannes veteran Thierry Frémaux and Scheufele. Chopard is expected to reveal the honorees for the event in the coming days.

Of booking Moore, Scheufele says, “She is perfect for this role, as she embodies what rising talents can strive for, with a constant reinvention through daring role choices she fearlessly embraced. Her long and diverse career epitomizes the Hollywood success story and I am sure that the laureates of the 24th Trophée Chopard will receive invaluable advice from their godmother.”

As far as Moore’s Cannes schedule, the actress has a film in the official selection courtesy of Coralie Fargeat’s The Substance which casts her opposite Dennis Quaid and Margaret Qualley. Moore — recently seen in Ryan Murphy’s anthology series Feud: Capote vs. The Swans and next starring in Taylor Sheridan’s Landman — also will serve as the host of amfAR’s milestone 30th anniversary Cannes gala at the famed Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc on May 23.
