Had things gone according to plan, Anna Kendrick would be attending the Toronto International Film Festival in support of her directorial debut, “Woman of the Hour”, which is making its world premiere at the film fest.
“[This] film festival has proven time and time again that it is an artist-driven festival, and it has been my absolute honour to have TIFF as part of my career for the last 14 years,” Kendrick said in the statement, which was read by one of the movie’s producers.“I truly can’t express how proud I am to have the world premiere of ‘Woman of the Hour’ at TIFF. It is more than a dream come true.
“I so wish they could be there to be celebrated in the way they richly deserve,” she said of the actors.
