The Toronto International Film Festival will feature 70 Canadian films at this year’s 10-day event, including world premieres of Atom Egoyan’s thriller Chloe , Dilip Mehta’s New Delhi-based comedy Cooking With Stella and the much-anticipated romantic drama Cairo Time from Montreal’s Ruba Nadda.

At a packed press conference yesterday at Toronto’s Fairmont Royal York hotel, TIFF organizers also announced that American director Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (with co-stars Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell, filling in the lead role vacated by the untimely death of Australian actor Heath Ledger) will be a North American premiere gala.

In special presentations, the festival will also showcase the feature-film directorial debuts of Vancouver-bred Peter Stebbings ( Defendor with Woody Harrelson, Kat Dennings and Sandra Oh) and 20-year-old Quebecker Xavier Dolan’s English-Canadian premiere for J’ai Tue Ma Mere (I Killed My Mother) .

TIFF is this year held from September 10th to September 19th, and this is its 34th year.

In other news, the LA premiere of Shorts is going to be on August 15th at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, and Kat will be in attendance! If you feel like seeing her down the red carpet in the flesh, the celeb arrivals are set to about noon, with the films screening at 1 P.M.

I’ve got a bunch of new images for you today. First off is the caps from Kat’s newest videoblog that were promised yesterday.

Next some outtakes from the Entertainment Weekly issue of November, 2008, where Kat was featured in the Breakout Stars of 2008! These are all with Rob Pattinson, and photographed by Chris Craymer.

And last but not least, 13 new HQ images from Kat’s attending the Adventureland Premiere on March 16.

Enjoy!

35 new high quality images from the LA Nick and Norah premiere uploaded here and here. I’ve been staring at her dress so much for the past few days that I want it for myself.

EW also interviewed Kat and Michael Cera at the Toronto International Film Festival last month, and the interview is in full under the cut. :) Caps from both of these things forthcoming when I get home from my parents’. Thanks to dennings on LJ for the heads up.
