More details on Brad Pitt and Penelope Cruz's Chanel campaign

Chanel's website describes the campaign visuals as:

"Seaside off-season, a sport car, a dinner at the hotel. The intensity and the poetry of a burgeoning love story. The CHANEL Iconic Handbag campaign revisits the film A Man and a Woman by Claude Lelouch. Lensed by Inez & Vinoodh, Penélope Cruz and Brad Pitt, two icons, meet another. The CHANEL handbag is the privileged witness to this suspended moment in Deauville, a place intimately linked to the story of the House."

The campaign's visuals are adapted from the movie, A Man and a Woman by Claude Lelouch, a French romantic drama released in 1996. Chanel's 2024 mini-adaption is placed in a black and white setting, with the Chanel bag in between them.

Penelope Cruz wears a black turtleneck with her wavy hair and a matte lipstick, while Brad Pitt's military style haircut complements his black sweater atop a crisp white shirt.

Speaking on the campaign and her co-star, Penelope says,

“I met Brad many years ago because we did a movie together but we didn't have scenes together. I think he's perfect to embody Jean-Louis Trintignant's character."

Speaking on the campaign, Claude LeLouch, the original writer of A Man and Woman, says,

"If I had to remake the film today, with Brad Pitt and Penélope Cruz, I would ask them, as I did with Anouk Aimée and Jean-Louis Trintignant, not to be an actor and an actress, but a man and a woman."
