On May 15, at the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France, Apple Original Films celebrated the world premiere of the film “Propeller One-Way Night Coach.”

It’s written, directed, narrated and produced by two-time Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner John Travolta. The film will premiere globally on Apple TV on Friday, May 29, 2026.

Making his directorial debut and returning to Cannes after nearly 30 years, John Travolta celebrated “Propeller One-Way Night Coach” at the premiere event alongside stars Ella Bleu Travolta, Clark Shotwell, Kelly Eviston-Quinnett, Olga Hoffmann and Edouard Philipponnat, as well as producers Jason Berger and Amy Laslett. During the film’s presentation, John Travolta was also honored with the prestigious Honorary Palme d’Or in recognition of his extraordinary contributions to cinema and his enduring impact on the film industry.

Here’s how the film is described: Set in the golden age of aviation, a young airplane enthusiast, Jeff (played by newcomer Clark Shotwell), and his mother (Kelly Eviston-Quinnett) set off on a one-way cross-country odyssey to Hollywood, which transforms a simple flight into the trip of a lifetime. Between airline meals, charming flight attendants (played by Ella Bleu Travolta and Olga Hoffmann), unexpected stopovers, larger-than-life passengers and a thrilling glimpse at first class, the journey unfolds in moments both magical and unexpected, charting the course for the boy’s future.

An Apple Original Film, “Propeller One-Way Night Coach” is a production of Travolta’s JTP Films Inc. and Kids at Play. The film is produced by Travolta of JTP Productions, in addition to Jason Berger and Amy Laslett of Kids at Play.
