SXSW Announces First Wave of 2026 Film and TV Lineup
"SXSW has announced the first wave of programming for its 2026 Film and TV Festival, including selections in its narrative, documentary, feature, short, episodic, and XR sections. David E. Kelley's new Elle Fanning-led Apple series "Margo's Got Money Troubles" has been announced as the Opening Night TV selection, joining the previously announced opening night film, Boots Riley's "I Love Boosters.""
"Elle Fanning is absolutely magnetic as Margo, and Michelle Pfeiffer delivers a performance that reminds you why she's an absolute legend. The mother-daughter dynamic these two create together is going to really get people talking. Nick Offerman will catch people completely off guard, as will the rest of the incredibly impressive cast. With its killer soundtrack, genuine heart, and sharp attitude and edge, this show captures the exact spirit that makes SXSW special and the bold, distinctive storytelling we love to open with!"
