Stardom is a 2000 Canadian comedy-drama film directed by Denys Arcand and written by J.Jacob Potashnik and Arcand. It stars Jessica Paré and Dan Aykroyd.

The film was screened out of competition at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.{{cite web |url=http://www.festival-cannes.com/en/archives/ficheFilm/id/10535/year/2000.html |title=Festival de Cannes: Stardom |access-date=2009-10-17|work=festival-cannes.com}}

Arcand cited his later film Days of Darkness (2007) as similar to Stardom, though Days of Darkness was ostensibly a sequel to his other films The Decline of the American Empire (1986) and The Barbarian Invasions (2003).{{Cite web|url=http://www.lactualite.com/culture/quest-ce-qui-cloche-avec-denys-arcand/ |title=Qu'est-ce qui cloche avec Denys Arcand ? |last=Coulombe |first=Michel |date=8 November 2007 |access-date=30 December 2016 |work=L'actualité}}
