The Toronto International Film Festival has announced this year’s global cohort of ‘Rising Stars’ for 2023. The TIFF ‘Rising Stars’ programme features actors on the verge of making a large impact on the international stage and provides them with an exclusive opportunity to experience and engage in professional development and mentorship sessions and industry events that provide valuable networking opportunities with established creatives at the Festival. All ‘Rising Stars’ are featured in films and series from TIFF 2023’s official selection, and join the Festival from around the world.
“Every year, we see the incredible impact of TIFF’s Rising Stars initiative and are thrilled to announce the new 2023 cohort of the most exciting and up and coming on-screen talent,” said Anita Lee, Chief Programming Officer, TIFF. “If you don’t know who they are, you will soon.”
TIFF ‘Rising Stars’ will be celebrated at a special moment during the 2023 TIFF tribute awards presented by Bulgari. The annual event, taking place at the Royal York Hotel on Sunday, September 10, celebrates achievements across the film industry. New this year, the TIFF ‘Rising Stars’ tribute after party will follow the dinner and awards ceremony with current and past rising stars mingling with film lovers for an evening of glamour and fun in celebration of emerging talent. Sarah Gadon, a former Rising Star from the program’s first cohort, is chairing this fundraising event which also features DJ Karim Olen Ash. Other committee members include: Zubby Achara, Jordyn Benattar, Kyla Doering, Elizabeth Heggie, Sarah Jenkins, Carmen Madonia, Pooja Sihra, Nicole Tapscott, and Jorey Worb.
