The international gathering, which last year debuted the Oscar-winning South Korean film Parasite, has yet to announce its lineup of new films. Like other event organizers, Cannes festival planners have previously said they have monitored developments and been in contact with the World Health Organization. Cannes officials did not reply to a request for comment on Wednesday as another festival that takes place at the same location, MIPTV, canceled its late March event. In France, 215 people have been diagnosed with coronavirus, and four have died, according to Foreign Policy. On Thursday, France’s health minister extended a ban on gatherings of more than 5,000 people in confined spaces to May 31—after the scheduled start of Cannes 2020.
