Tahar Rahim to star opposite Marion Cotillard in next pic for ‘Separation’ helmer Asghar Farhadi

French thesp Tahar Rahim (“A Prophet”) will star opposite Marion Cotillard in the next feature by Oscar-winning director Asghar Farhadi (“A Separation”), his first pic set outside his native Iran.

Farhadi’s as-yet-untitled French-language drama will start shooting in Paris in the fall. […]

Details of the storyline are under wraps. […]

“I think this next film could broaden my audience throughout the world,” Farhadi said at the prize ceremony.

Cotillard and Rahim, among Gaul’s biggest stars, have never been paired in a film before, but both have worked with Jacques Audiard — his “Rust and Bone,” starring Cotillard, is in Cannes competition.
