Wes Anderson
Bryan Cranston, Liev Schreiber, and Jeffrey Wright Join Wes Anderson’s Next Movie
Not much has been unveiled about Wes Anderson’s next movie, but whatever it’s about, its cast is shaping up to be one for the history books. Per The Hollywood Reporter, Bryan Cranston, Hope Davis, Jeffrey Wright, and Liev Schreiber have all joined the already stacked cast of the eccentric filmmaker’s upcoming project. This marks Anderson’s first time working with Davis and Wright. Cranston and Schreiber both previously appeared in Isle of Dogs; Schreiber also stars in Anderson’s The French Dispatch, which will finally hit theaters October 22nd after being pushed back due to COVID-related delays. Of course, Anderson is known for working with the same actors time and time again, and this new film is no exception. Previously announced cast members include some of his top go-tos: Adrien Brody,...
Scarlett Johansson Joins Cast of Wes Anderson’s Next Movie
It feels like Wes Anderson has been a critical darling for the entirety of his career, but that doesn’t make it any less surprising to see arguably the biggest names in Hollywood fawning over him these days — nevermind jumping at the opportunity to work with him, too. Scarlett Johansson is the latest A-lister to sign on to work on the director’s next feature film, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The Black Widow star won’t be the only fresh face joining Anderson’s upcoming movie. Both Tom Hanks and Margot Robbie will also make their debut in the same film as Johansson. Between the three of those actors alone, it’s tempting to wonder if this project is Anderson’s attempt to shoot for the stars and cross over from art-house icon to blockbuster regular. Rounding out the cast are Anderson’...
Margot Robbie Joins Cast of Wes Anderson’s Next Movie
The Wes Anderson Cinematic Universe keeps on getting bigger. The beloved director has begun working on his next feature film, and the unsurprisingly star-studded cast for it now includes a fresh face: Margot Robbie. The Suicide Squad actress has never worked with Anderson before, but it’s easy to imagine how her layered, peppy, and sly delivery would bolster one of his scripts. Plot details for the movie are still under wraps, which also means Robbie’s role has not yet been revealed, notes The Hollywood Reporter. The untitled feature will begin shooting in Spain later this month. Rounding out the cast alongside Robbie is fellow new-to-Anderson actor Tom Hanks as well as Bill Murray, Adrien Brody, and Tilda Swinton, all three of whom are longtime staples in the director’s filmography. ...
Tom Hanks to Appear in Wes Anderson’s Next Film
Tom Hanks is joining the Wes Anderson Cinematic Universe. The beloved actor has signed on to appear in Anderson’s next film, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Hanks joins a cast that already includes Wes Anderson vets Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, and Adrian Brody. So far, Anderson is keeping the plot of the film film close to his twill vest, but production is already underway in Spain.

Taking place in a fictional French town in the 20th century, The French Dispatch centers on a foreign outpost of an American newspaper — the Evening Sun. The action brings to life the stories from the paper’s final issue, as well...
I Know This May Be Hard to Believe, but Bill Murray Will Star in Wes Anderson’s Next Film
This may come as shocking news to some, but Bill Murray has signed on to star in Wes Anderson’s next film. No, I’m not referring to The French Dispatch, Anderson’s upcoming film also starring Murray that’s set to hit theaters in October, but rather the one after that. Per Variety, Anderson is scheduled to begin production on his next film in Spain starting in August, and Murray will be on set alongside Tilda Swinton (who also has a role in The French Dispatch). So far, Anderson is keeping the plot of his next film close to his twill vest, but Swinton has hinted that the film “is not about Spain” even though it’s being filmed there. For Murray, this will mark his tenth collaboration with Anderson, having previously appeared in Rushmore, The Royal Tenebaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zisso...
Wes Anderson Shares First Clip from The French Dispatch: Watch
Following its premiere at Cannes on Monday, Fox Searchlight has shared the first clip from Wes Anderson’s new film The French Dispatch. Taking place in a fictional French town in the 20th century, The French Dispatch centers on a foreign outpost of an American newspaper — the Evening Sun. The action brings to life the stories from the paper’s final issue, as well as the drama around the editorial staff of The French Dispatch. Making up that staff and its surrounding characters is perhaps the most talented ensemble assembled on film in recent history: Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Jeffrey Wright, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Benicio del Toro, Adrien Brody, Léa Seydoux, Timothée Chalamet, Lyna Khoudri, Stephen Park, and&n...

50 Most Anticipated Movies of 2021
Anticipating movies these days is a fool’s errand. Unless it’s guaranteed to be hitting a streaming platform, the release date of any film should have an asterisk appended to it. That’s not cynical, but the nature of covering this industry amidst the pandemic. So, you could imagine how fun this list was to put together. (Spoiler: It wasn’t.) Dragging over last year’s offerings to this one seems like an easy task, but the shift opens the door for so many questions, all of which boil down to: “What are the odds?” For many features — you know, like Ghostbusters: Afterlife, or No Time to Die, or Halloween Kills, or any film without a streaming opt-in — the release date is as certain as we are about anything right now in life. “We’ll see” is the name of the game. Having said that, a few studios...
