For Ishaan, Homebound is another step in a career that’s quickly gaining international momentum—fresh off his Hollywood debut in The Perfect Couple and now headlining a film that’s headed to one of cinema’s most revered platforms.
This marks a special moment for Ishaan and team. While Ghaywan returns to Cannes after leaving a lasting impression with his debut film Masaan, Homebound is set to be Ishaan’s first outing at the iconic festival. The film brings together Ghaywan’s deeply emotional storytelling and Ishaan’s growing reputation for choosing bold, meaningful roles.
The Cannes slate this year features an impressive mix of global talent and fresh stories. Homebound will screen alongside Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut Eleanor the Great, The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo by Diego Céspedes, My Father’s Shadow by Akinola Davies Jr., and Urchin by Harris Dickinson, among others.
