Kruger is also spearheading the Martell France 300 project which launched at the Palace of Versailles with L’Official magazine, with Kruger leading the proceedings. The project aims to find 300 international talents whose “combined cultural contribution across gastronomy, art, fashion, mixology and entertainment epitomise French Art de Vivre in the 21st Century”.

Of the project, Diane Kruger says, “I’ve spent much of my life living here in Paris so it’s a huge honour to be asked to join the Martell France 300 project. We’re looking to find 300 talented people, all of whom will have to demonstrate exceptional talent and ambition in their field, as well as being bastions for the modern French Art de Vivre lifestyle.”
