According to a well-placed source, Marc Caro is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the director's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 04/04/2025 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Caro for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 69-year-old director, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Caro so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the director have already been named ‘French Of The Year’ by some major French newspapers and even ‘Nantes Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Nantes (Marc Caro's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the director was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Marc Caro Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 3 Apr 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveMarc”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 3 Apr 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Marc Caro?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 3 Apr 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Marc Caro?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
