With the annual Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in full force, the city is buzzing with filmmakers, actors, and cultural icons. While you might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of celebs like Jacob Elordi, Cate Blanchett, and Florence Pugh running around the city, chances are it’ll be blink-and-you’ll-miss-it fast. But don’t fret; 3 has you covered. As an official TIFF media partner, since the fest kicked off on September 5, we’ve invited some famous faces to stop by the first 3 Magazine Lounge and IMDb Portrait Studio at the Intercontinental Hotel. In addition to catching them there, a number of celebrities paused to autograph the traditional 9L of Moët & Chandon. (The celeb-annointed bottle will be auctioned later this year, with all proceeds going to the TIFF Every Story Fund, an initiative that promotes diversity, inclusion, equity, and belonging within the movie industry.) Click through our gallery for a behind-the-scenes peek at TIFF’s biggest names and talent.
