For his latest quirksome trip through well-framed, characterful cinema, Wes Anderson has assembled a fantastic cast. Following yesterday's poster release, the full trailer for The French Dispatch has arrived and you can enjoy it below.
To give the film its full title, The French Dispatch Of The Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun, revolves around American journalists in a fictional French town producing a publication of their work – hence the New Yorker magazine-cover design of the artwork. It’s also a welcome reminder that Anderson has, once again, assembled a truly ridiculous ensemble here – working once again with Bill Murray, Owen Wilson (in a beret), Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand and Adrien Brody, and bringing in Benicio Del Toro, Jeffrey Wright, Léa Seydoux, Timothée Chalamet, and more.
And that's just the tip of the actor-berg. Elisabeth Moss, Edward Norton, Willem Dafoe, Saoirse Ronan, Christophe Waltz, Jason Schwartzman (who co-wrote the story alon), Henry Winkler, Anjelica Huston, Bob Balaban, and The Grand Budapest Hotel’s Tony Revolori, among others, show up for duty.
The movie will stroll its way into UK cinemas on 24 July.
