Oscar-winning director Fernando Meirelles is at the helm of the English comedy "Art," adapted by renowned screenwriter Christopher Hampton, with Ralph Fiennes, Colin Farrell, and Wagner Moura cast as the lead actors. The project, a film adaptation of the famous play by French playwright Yasmina Reza, was announced at the Cannes Film Market and garnered significant interest from day one.

Ralph Fiennes, a three-time Oscar nominee, was last seen in the film "Conclave."

The project will be managed by 193 Films and is reported to be seeking buyers at the Cannes Film Market. The international production "Art" is planned as a medium-budget film. Filming is expected to begin soon, although exact dates have not yet been announced.
