France 24's "À l'Affiche !" Previews Four Fall Releases, Led by Brad Pitt in David Ayer's "Heart of the Beast"

France 24's cinema program "À l'Affiche !" devoted its 23 September 2026 edition to four upcoming films. The centerpiece is "Heart of the Beast" from director David Ayer, which follows a retired former member of the U.S. special forces, played by Brad Pitt, and his dog Odin; both characters are depicted as suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, and the film is built around their friendship and survival. The same episode covers "Primetime" by Lance Oppenheim, with Robert Pattinson cast as the host of a television show that hunts pedophiles. That film examines the presenter's ratings-driven cynicism and draws on the real story of the reality-television program "To Catch a Predator" and its star presenter Chris Hansen. Jeanne Herry's "Garance" marks another shift in subject for a director who previously addressed child welfare and adoption in "Pupille" and restorative justice in "Je verrai toujours vos visages"; this time she turns to alcoholism, with Adèle Exarchopoulos playing an actress who fights her alcohol dependency while scrambling for small parts. Completing the lineup is Bruno Dumont's "Les Roches Rouges," whose protagonists are five or six years old, ride quad bikes, fight, fall in love and jump from cliffs, with adults kept at a distance and the Mediterranean Sea as backdrop. The segment was published on 23 September 2026 at 15:03, with a cover image credited to À l'Affiche ! and France 24.
