Sebastian Stan Expands His Range: Fjord, Fatherhood, and The Batman II at Cannes

Deadline’s Cannes cover story follows Sebastian Stan as he promotes Fjord — Cristian Mungiu’s Romanian-rooted drama about immigrant families and government intervention — and discusses fatherhood, masculinity, and the ethics of parenting. He reflects on his own upbringing across Romania, Austria, and the U.S., the influence of his father figures, and how these themes intersect with his upcoming role as Harvey Dent in The Batman: Part II, tying personal responsibility and empathy to broader social issues like youth mental health and immigration politics.
