Nouvelle Vague Trailer: New Look At Richard Linklater’s Ode To French New Wave Arrives

Netflix has today released a brand new trailer for Richard Linklater’s other 2025 release, Nouvelle Vague, which you can watch below!

Set to be released by Altitude in the UK later this year, Nouvelle Vague is our second dose of Linklater film fun this year, alongside Blue Moon, which is also releasing later this year, and both are playing at this year’s BFI London Film Festival.

The film had its world premiere in Cannes back in May and was met with universal praise from critics and audiences who saw it, and gained an 11-minute standing ovation at its premiere screening, when Netflix paid $4 million for US distribution rights, which will see the film have a cinema release before landing on the streamer.

Nouvelle Vague, shot entirely in Paris, mostly in French and in black and white, centres on the events surrounding the making of Godard’s New Wave classic Breathless, which starred Seberg and Belmondo. Linklater’s love letter to cinema also features characters like Jean Cocteau, Robert Bresson, Roberto Rossellini, Jean-Pierre Melville, Eric Rohmer, Agnes Varda and Jacques Rivette.

It stars Guillaume Marbeck as Jean-Luc Godard, Aubry Dullin as Jean-Paul Belmondo and Zoey Deutch as Jean Seberg.
