Last year, Romy Mars Croquet—the daughter of filmmaker Sofia Coppola and musician Thomas Mars—went viral, with a video explaining how she was grounded after trying to charter a helicopter to visit her camp friend.

Now, Romy is back in the spotlight. She joined her grandfather, Francis Ford Coppola, at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival for the premiere of his movie, Megalopolis. (She has a small speaking role in the film; according to New York Times reporter Kyle Buchanan, she has three lines in the film.) Videos from inside the theater show Romy walking in alongside her grandfather.

For her Cannes debut, Romy opted for a classic look in a black strapless gown. Her accessorizes were all from Chanel, including the brand's logo earrings and slingback pumps, and she carried a quilted mini Chanel bag. Earlier in the day, at the photocall for Megalopolis, she also wore Chanel, opting for a tweed mini dress from the brand. There, she was joined by her sister, Cosmia, along with her great-aunt Talia Shire, and uncle Roman Coppola.

Romy has not returned to TikTok since she went viral—at least, not publicly. "We were raised to be so private, and social media is so the opposite of how I grew up," her mom, Sofia Coppola, later shared about the moment. "So it was the best way for her to be rebellious." She added, "I got lots of compliments on her filmmaking. And comedy. She’s funny. But people discussing my parenting publicly is not what I would’ve hoped for."
