I will delete this if the info is wrong but I don’t think so… (especially considering there is a Campion’s quote there!) It seems that there are more nice festival news to come and that Playlist accidentally leaked it and then deleted it! ibb.co/wLGsVfb(I hope it works because it doesn’t let me to attach images!)

Also it says New York premiere which sounds like it also will be at Telluride.

On awardsworthy (ex-awardswatch) they were predicting every movie to be at NY except this one. I don't understand them. Finally there was some discussion and there it was the article from Playlist:

It sounds wonderful! Hopefully, it is truth!
I actually saw someone predicting it as NYFF’s centerpiece right after Macbeth was announced as the opening film on Twitter.

As someone who is totally clueless about award shows, does it being a centerpiece movie mean much in regards to not only the quality of the film but also its chances at awards ? Thank you in advance.

I think the opening, center and closing piece means they are big movies (in an "art house" sense, of course!).
They frequently are "good" movies but, of course, the good reception is not 100% guaranteed.
If anything in the last three years Nomadland, Marriage Story and Roma were centerpiece. The year before was Todd Haynes' Wonderstruck, which it's not bad but it wasn't considered an important film in his filmography. Interesting enough, it premiered at Cannes in May so when the NYFF programed it, they already knew the reception was cold.
The point is, you never know but it's undoubtedly positive that it's programed in, apparently, three major festivals with different selection comitees.
