The Venice Film Festival has announced that “Maria,” the Maria Callas biopic by Pablo Larraín will premiere in competition this September.

The film stars Angelina Jolie as the famed diva alongside Pierfrancesco Favino, Alba Rohrwacher, Haluk Bilginer, and Kodi Smit-McPhee.

According to IMDB, “Maria” follows the life story of the world’s greatest opera singer, Maria Callas, during her final days in 1970s Paris.

This is the latest Larrain film to open at Venice following “El Conde” where he won Best Screenplay, “Spencer” starring Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana, and “Jackie” with Natalie Portman as Kennedy Onassis debuted in Venice. All three films went on to obtain at least one Oscar nomination.

“Maria” will compete against other high-profile films such as “The Room Next Door” by Pedro Almodovar, Joker 2: Folie à Deux” by Todd Phillips,  “Queer” by Luca Guadagnino, and “The Order” by Justin Kurzel.

“Maria” is still seeking distribution. The film was produced by Juan de Dios Larraín for Fabula Pictures, Lorenzo Mieli for The Apartment Pictures, a Fremantle Company, and Jonas Dornbach for Komlizen Film.
