Léa Seydoux will preside over the 52nd César Awards ceremony on Thursday, 25 February 2027, on the stage of the Olympia. She succeeds Camille Cottin, president of the 51st edition.

According to AlloCiné, she has been charting a career for more than twenty years that mixes French auteur cinema - The Beautiful Person by Christophe Honoré, Belle Épine by Rebecca Zlotowski - and blockbusters such as Robin Hood by Ridley Scott, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol by Brad Bird, Spectre and Dune: Part Two. In 2013, she shared the Cannes Palme d’Or for Blue Is the Warmest Colour. Five César nominations, one BAFTA nomination, round out her accolades. She also works with Wes Anderson, Yorgos Lanthimos and Xavier Dolan, confirming her commitment to intimate and demanding cinema.
