Fest director Alberto Barbera has told his staff to prepare for plan B in case of a lack of talent traveling to Venice: 'Let’s be ready for anything and take nothing for granted.'
director Alberto Barbera is working on a plan B. Should American films not participate in the Venice Film Festival because of the WGA and SAG strikes, the director has told his fest programmers that the 80th edition of the event “will be a Pan-European festival,” according to sources with knowledge of the plans.
Barbera has told his staff that it is too early to say how things will play out. “Let’s try to figure out what American producers and directors intend to do,” he has said, according to people familiar with the situation. “In the meantime, we are taking action to create an alternative program.”
