Lupita Nyong'o is turning heads at the Cannes Film Festival [1]. On Friday, she twirled for her life in a stunning pink gown at a Chopard event, giving us another glimpse of her glamorous signature pose [2]. The day before, the Black Panther [3] star arrived in style by boat with her 355 costars Marion Cotillard, Jessica Chastain, Penélope Cruz, and Fan Bingbing for a photocall promoting their upcoming all-female spy thriller [4] (which, by the way, we are totally f*cking pumped for). Lupita looked like an Old Hollywood bombshell [5] in a fitted black halter dress and cat-eye shades. Later that evening, she turned it out on the red carpet for the premiere of Sorry Angel (Plaire, Aimer Et Courir Vite); Lupita was a total vision in white Dior Haute Couture and even struck a Wakanda salute pose for photographers.
Lupita may not have been in attendance at the Met Gala [7] in NYC on Monday, but the rest of her Black Panther [8] costars — including Michael B. Jordan, Chadwick Boseman, and Letitia Wright — partied it up in her honor [9]. It was also announced this week that Lupita will be starring alongside her Black Panther costar Winston Duke, as well as Elisabeth Moss [10], in Jordan Peele's Us [11]. It will be the director's first big-screen project since Get Out (and yes, we are totally f*cking pumped for that, too). Keep reading to see Lupita taking Cannes by storm.
