Tribeca Film Festival jurors for the 2015 competition series include Hank Azaria, Cobie Smulders and Steve Buscemi, the festival organizers announced on Monday.
The three actors are among 34 industry leaders, including award-winning filmmakers, producers, actors, authors and entrepreneurs selected to be on juries for the festival this year.
The jury will be divided among the seven competitive categories. The winning films, filmmakers and actors in each category will be announced at the TFF Awards Night ceremony on April 23 at Spring Studios. The 2015 festival runs from April 15 –26.
The seven juries will award $150,000 in cash and prizes. Eight of the winners will also receive a work of original art by an acclaimed artist as part of the Tribeca Film Festival Artists Awards program.
In addition to the festival’s main competition juries, the five jurors for the third annual $25,000 Nora Ephron Prize, recognizing a female writer or director, were also announced.
