Garance Marillier

After launch­ing her act­ing career in 2010 in the short films Junior, by Julia Ducour­nau, and It’s Not a Cow­boy Movie, by Ben­jamin Par­ent, Garance Mar­il­li­er teamed up again with her part­ner in crime, Julia Ducour­nau, for the TV movie Mange  (2012), fol­lowed by Raw  (2017), the director’s first fea­ture film, which earned her a César nom­i­na­tion for Most Promis­ing Actress. Garance Mar­il­li­er con­tin­ued her ascent the fol­low­ing year with Ad Vitam, a sci­ence-fic­tion series broad­cast on Arte and award­ed at the Series Mania Fes­ti­val, before hit­ting the big screen again in 2019 with the dra­ma Pom­pei, direct­ed by John Shank and Anne Fal­guères. In 2020, she joined the cast of the biopic Madame Claude. Her most recent col­lab­o­ra­tion with Julia Ducour­nau on Titane brought her to the Offi­cial Com­pe­ti­tion at this year’s Cannes Film Fes­ti­val, where the film won the Palme d’Or. Garance Mar­il­li­er just com­plet­ed film­ing on Rue des Dames, the sec­ond fea­ture from Hamé and Ekoué, mem­bers of the group La Rumeur.
