Oscar-winning Chinese-American filmmaker Chloe Zhao, whose much-acclaimed 'Nomadland' was launched from the Venice Film Festival last year, is set to return to the Lido as a member of the upcoming fest's main jury. According to Variety, the jury will comprise four women and three men. Another multiple Oscar-winning director Bong Joon Ho, who helmed 'Parasite' will preside over the jury of the event's upcoming edition.

They will be serving jury duty on the Lido alongside French actor Virginie Efira, who most recently starred in Paul Verhoeven's 'Benedetta'; the UK's Cynthia Erivo, who plays Aretha Franklin in the third season of National Geographic's 'Genius' series; and Canadian actor and producer Sarah Gadon who made a splash in Venice in 2011 with her role in David Cronenberg's 'A Dangerous Method' and more recently appeared in Xavier Dolan's 'The Death and Life of John F. Donovan.'
