TIFF Announces 2020 Lineup: The Toronto International Film Festival has announced its 2020 lineup of 50 new features, a dramatically smaller selection than last year, where the typically stuffed festival hosted more than 300 titles. Nevertheless, the festival program - which is expected to take place as a combination of virtual screenings and physical premieres, but no press and industry - features plenty of recognizable names.

Chloe Zhao's Frances McDormand-starring `Nomadland,` already set for a starry festival run, will screen at the festival, joining previously announced titles like Francis Lee's `Ammonite,` Vinterberg's Mads Mikkelsen drama `Another Round,` Ricky Staub's Idris Elba vehicle `Concrete Cowboy,` Mexican-Canadian director Nicolas Pereda's `Fauna,` Reinaldo Marcus Green's Mark Wahlberg drama `Good Joe Bell,` Suzanne Lindon's `Spring Blossom,` and Naomi Kawase's Cannes 2020 selection `True Mothers.`Regina King's Directorial Debut, 'Nomadland,' Herzog, and More

`We began this year planning for a 45th Festival much like our previous editions, but along the way we had to rethink just about everything,` said Cameron Bailey, Artistic Director and Co-Head of TIFF, in an official statement. `This year's lineup reflects that tumult. The names you already know are doing brand new things this year, and there's a whole crop of exciting new names to discover.`
