PODCAST | Chiara Nicoletti interviews Timothée Chalamet, Joel Edgerton and David Michod, actors and director of the film The King.

The film, presented out of competition at the 76th Venice Film Festival is based on the Henry V Shakespeare’s play and sees Timothée Chalamet in the role of King Henry and Joel Edgerton in that of John Falstaff. The King is shaped as a coming of age film and with this guideline in mind, Michod, Edgerton and Chalamet comment and describe their work on the story and the film. When do we really become adults? This is a question every spectator will have to answer while watching the film.
The King: Hal, wayward prince and reluctant heir to the English throne, has turned his back on royal life and is living among the people.
