Ewan McGregor, Cannes Film Festival Juror

Actor Ewan McGregor went to Cannes in previous years with the films Trainspotting and Moulin Rouge, but at this year's 65th Annual Cannes Film Festival, he is wearing a different hat. McGregor, 41, is one of a nine-member jury that also includes actress Diane Kruger, directors Alexander Payne and Raoul Peck and fashion designer Jean-Paul Gaultier.

“As an actor … when we come to festivals we show our films, and we get to see our film, and then we sit in a dark room for three days with your good selves, and then we go home,” McGregor told The Washington Post. “What a privilege it will be to sit in the dark for 12 days and have all these great stories sweep over us.”
