Yahoo Lifestyle See the Best Celebrity Sightings From the 2025 Sundance Film Festival
Awards show season is upon us, but amid Oscar nominations and Golden Globe wins, the 2025 Sundance Film Festival truly pays tribute to some of the biggest upcoming films. This year’s festival—held once again in Park City, Utah—began on January 23 and concludes February 2, inviting high-profile Hollywood actors to toast independent cinema (and the fabulous after-parties that follow).
So far, the 2025 roster has highlighted Jimpa, starring John Lithgow as a late-blooming gay man and Olivia Colman as his daughter, while also spotlighting Juliette Lewis as a chair in the body-swap satire By Design. There’s also Twinless, a new work by writer and director James Sweeney (and starring Dylan O’Brien), as well as the new music documentary from Oscar-winner Questlove, Sly Lives! (aka The Burden of Black Genius).
With A-listers abound and parties consummating each day’s screening, consider this your visual guide to the 41st annual Sundance Film Festival. Ahead, see all the best photos from this year’s festival (and subsequent fêtes).
