While the annual Nylon Young Hollywood Party recently took place in Los Angeles, the 69th Annual Cannes Film Festival has been in full swing in southern France. A few adorable child actresses and several grown-up ones are there this year!




Here's Korean child actress Soo-an Kim with her castmates at the premiere of Train to Busan on May 13. The film is an apocalyptic thriller about a zombie outbreak in South Korea.




Eleven-year-old newcomer Ruby Barnhill has attended a few events at Cannes to promote her very first film The BFG. Here she is at a photocall on May 14...



...and at the premiere, with director Steven Spielberg and his wife Kate Capshaw, on the same day. Set for American release on July 1, The BFG is an adaptation of the classic children's book about an orphan girl (Ruby) who meets a "big friendly giant."




French-American starlet Lily-Rose Depp, 16, couldn't look breezier at this photocall for La Danseuse on May 13. The film is a period drama about a dancer who becomes a muse for Auguste Rodin and Toulouse Lautrec.



Here's Lily-Rose at the premiere, also on May 13. Elle Fanning was initially attached to play Lily-Rose's part; The Neon Demon, her film with Jena Malone is also debuting at Cannes this year.




Kristen Stewart, who turned 26 last month, has been at Cannes before (her movie Clouds of Sils Maria debuted there in 2014). This year, she's there for Café Society, and on May 11, she attended this photocall with director Woody Allen and costar Blake Lively. Kristen dyed her naturally dark hair platinum blonde for Cannes, saying, "I want to f-ck up my hair."




Kirsten Dunst, who turned 34 last month, also has a role in Café Society. Here she is at the film's premiere on May 11.




Jodie Foster, now 53, shares a laugh with costar Julia Roberts at a photocall for Money Monster on May 11. At a Women in Motion panel at Cannes, Jodie spoke out against male filmmakers overusing rape for female character development: "It was ridiculous. It was every single movie I saw. If you really got to what was the overriding motivation, it was always rape because for some reason men saw that as this incredibly dramatic thing. 'Well, that,s easy! I can just pluck that one out of the sky and apply it to her.'"
