Margot Robbie Will Appear In Wes Anderson's Next Movie
Though Wes Anderson's upcoming movie, The French Dispatch, will not be released until October, the director is already onto his next project. Anderson, a filmmaker whose work, which includes films like Moonrise Kingdom and The Royal Tenenbaums, is synonymous with the word "twee," is assembling the cast for his eleventh feature film. While many details from the film are being kept strictly under wraps, a few tidbits are starting to leak out.
Here, find everything we know so far about the currently untitled, new Wes Anderson project.
Margot Robbie just joined the cast.
The Suicide Squad actress is set to appear in the still-untitled Wes Anderson movie. This will be Robbie's first time in an Anderson feature. Though details about her role have not yet been announced, The Hollywood Reporter noted that it will likely be "supporting in nature."
Tom Hanks, Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, and Adrien Brody will all appear in the movie.
As has become standard for Anderson's movies, the cast is already star-studded. Murray, Swinton, and Brody are all Anderson veterans, having appeared in many of the director's prior films. Swinton was featured in Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Isle of Dogs, and is also in The French Dispatch. The new project will be Brody's fourth Anderson film, as well, after Dispatch. Meanwhile, Dispatch will be Murray's ninth Anderson movie, and the following film will be the actor's tenth.
For Hanks, the untitled project will be his first Anderson movie, though it is unclear how large his role will be. Per The Hollywood Reporter, the part may be "small and could be cameo-like in nature."
Anderson, as always, will write and direct the film.
The movie will begin production in Spain this month.
According to Variety, the movie is set to start production in Spain in August 2021. However, Swinton hinted that the movie is "not about Spain." The site also noted that sets "resembling a desert landscape have been going up in Chinchón, a small town located southeast of Madrid, over the last two months."
