In a video unveiling the line-up with Radio 1’s Ali Plumb, EMPIRE’s Helen O’Hara and Bastille’s Dan Smith who is a patron and supporter of the area, it was revealed that film showings at the event include a mixture of pre-released screenings, recent cinema hits, music documentaries and classic film showings.
Some of those on show include Despicable Me 4, Furiosa, Dune Part Two, All Of Us Strangers, Barbie, The Fall Guy, The Greatest Showman, Baby Driver and Shaun Of The Dead in its 20th anniversary year.
Guests at the event include Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright who will be taking part in a Q&A about Shaun Of The Dead; Wright will also introduce his film Baby Driver.
Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott will reunite with director Andrew Haigh for a Q&A about their emotive film All Of Us Strangers, which was released earlier this year, while Florence Pugh will speak about Dune Part 2 ahead of the screening.
Other guests there include Tilda Swinton, who will take part in a Q&A for Only Lovers Left Alive and will introduce her new film Problemista while Cate Blanchett will talk about I’m Not There, the film she starred in about Bob Dylan.
Both Swinton and Blanchett also appeared at last year’s Glastonbury, with Swinton joining Max Richter on stage while Blanchett danced on stage with Sparks.
There will be a screening of the first two episodes of new Star Wars series The Acolyte, while Kneecap will talk about their new documentary film. There will also be a special showing of Spinal Tap in its 40th anniversary year.

Glastonbury will return to Worthy Farm from June 26 to 30 this year, with Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA set to headline.
The final tickets for this year’s bash went on sale in the re-sale on April 21 and sold out in 20 minutes. The last batch was comprised of tickets that the original purchasers did not pay the balance on by the cut-off date in early April.
Competition for the tickets was fiercer than ever this year, with organiser Emily Eavis revealing that 2024 had seen the “highest percentage of ticket balances paid” since Glastonbury introduced the payment plan scheme.
Glastonbury 2024 will see the introduction of a new stage in the Shangri-La area, called Arrivals, which will be dedicated to South Asian talent. Shania Twain will take on the coveted legends slot this year, while K-pop will have its first presence at the festival with a performance from Pledis boyband SEVENTEEN on the Pyramid Stage.
With the big weekend just around the corner and the festival revealing the line-up for each stage and area every week that approaches, check out the full bill of artists confirmed to play so far here and when to expect the set times.
