Other Netflix films thought to be in contention for Cannes were The Laundromat, starring Meryl Streep and directed by Steven Soderbergh, Noah Baumbach’s latest film, and Henry V drama The King with Timothée Chalamet.
The loss of Netflix titles was perceived by many to be a heavy blow for last year’s Cannes film festival.
Last week, Steven Spielberg – who had expressed the controversial opinion that Netflix films be barred from the Oscars – met with Sarandos for peace talks.
Netflix had previously responded to the director’s comments with a brief manifesto about making cinema as easy to access as possible.
