First Images from Richard Linklater's ‘Nouvelle Vague'

May 9, 2024 Jordan Ruimy

We have our first look at Richard Linklater’s “Nouvelle Vague,” which just recently wrapped production in Paris. The first images come to us, ironically, via Cahiers du Cinéma.

It’s French actor Guillaume Marbeck who will be portraying Jean-Luc Godard. Zoey Deutch is also in the cast, playing “Breathless” beauty Jean Seberg. I can also confirm that some of the other actors taking part in “Nouvelle Vague” include newcomers Jean-Jacques Le Vessier, Jodie Ruth-Forest and Jonas Marmy.

The cinematographer will be David Chambille, who photographed Bruno Dumont’s last three films (“L’Empire”, “France” and “Joan of Arc”). Furthermore, “Nouvelle Vague” will be shot in black and white 1:33:1 just like Godard’s “Breathless” was lensed in 1959.

“Nouvelle Vague” will be Linklater’s first project shot entirely in French. The film will reconstruct the story behind the creation of the Nouvelle Vague movement in French cinema and focus on the production of Jean-Luc Godard’s 1959 groundbreaker, “A Bout de Souffle” (“Breathless”).

The characters in the film will include legendary filmmakers such as Jean-Luc Godard, Jean Cocteau, Robert Bresson, Roberto Rossellini, Jean-Pierre Melville, Eric Rohmer and Jacques Rivette — most of them were responsible for the rise of the Nouvelle Vague in the ‘60s. No other casting details are known at this time.

”Nouvelle Vague” is being dubbed as a “comedy” and “love letter” to the French New Wave, Godard and company. In a recent interview, Linklater had confirmed the project and went on to describe it as being “like a New Wave film.”
