It’s typical: You wait years (okay, a year and a half, not that long actually) for a new Wes Anderson film, and two arrive at the same time as immaculately designed, symmetrical, pastel-toned buses. Frankly, it’s only felt like a brief moment since then The French office hits our screens, but this year brings not one, but two new Andersonian offices. We’ll get his Roald Dahl adaptation later in the year. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar on Netflix, but first we’ll see city of asteroids, a romantic comedy set in 1955 with (unsurprisingly) a ridiculously stacked cast. In fact, you can read a bunch of those names on the poster, which just surfaced ahead of an upcoming trailer.
Before we get into those names (and holy smokes, there are many), it’s first remarkable how throwback America it is for Anderson’s storytelling. Over the past decade he’s ventured to Budapest, the Isle of Dogs (actually futuristic Japan, not mainland London) and the streets of Paris for his particular brand of picture-perfect productions. But here everything is great, breathtaking Americana, empty canyons and brilliant blue skies: this is the first service of him in the United States since Kingdom of the moonrise. Indeed, given the period setting and rom-com model, it seems city of asteroids it could be something like this Lunar dawn satisfied rushmore. Here’s the synopsis: “Set in a fictional American desert town circa 1955, the agenda of a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention (organized to bring together students and parents from across the country for scholarships and academic competitions) is extraordinarily disturbed. the world. events”.
In this cast, then. This may be one of Anderson’s highlights, which is no small feat. Of course it stars Jason Schwartzmann, as well as Anderson co-stars Tilda Swinton, Adrien Brody, Willem Dafoe, Tony Revolori, Edward Norton, Jeffrey Wright, and Jeff Goldblum. In addition, he will meet Scarlett Johansson, Bryan Cranston and Liev Schreiber, who lent their voices to isle of dogs. And also, it has Margot Robbie, Tom Hanks, Hope Davis, Stephen Park (also in The French office), Rupert Friend, Maya Hawke, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau and Jake Ryan. This man knows how to put together an outfit, and there are likely many others that appear in the film but aren’t mentioned here.
We will have a complete and exhaustive list of all city of asteroids launched when the movie hits theaters this summer, and we’ll get a sneak peek when the trailer drops tomorrow. Now who wants a spoonful of sugar henry?
