Just when you don't think it can get more Wes Anderson, it gets more Wes Anderson.
His doubling down has gone exponential
This is definitely one of the most Wes Anderson movie ever made
When does Wes Anderson's Wes Andersonness become pantomime of Wes Anderson
I swear, I think Wes is trolling us now.
Sorry but at some point we're gonna have to stop saying this.
This just goes to show how respected Wes Anderson is in the industry that he can get that line up for one film.
Just as Hollywood’s crème de la crème clamored to be in Woody Allen’s films, although I can’t recall any director other than Anderson who stacked all of established Hollywood in each film.
I love his cinematography style. Every scene worth a wallpaper lol. There is a thing I don't like though: the changing aspect ratio throughout the film
He has a $20 million dollar budget and go that major of a cast.
@Sufjan Smith It worked well for Grand Budapest. Aspect ratio reflecting the era it took place was pretty cool IMHO
@Dylan that just goes to show there doing out of respect for him and love rather than money
That is a true filmmaker
I love that Wes Anderson continues to use his friends over and over in his films. Watching his filmography is like watching all these actors grow up or grow old. i think its beautiful.
The actors who collaborate with Wes the most are
Bill Murray x9
Owen Wilson x8
Jason Schwartzman x8
Tilda Swinton x5
Willem Dafoe x5
Jeff Goldblum x4
Edward Norton x5
And Adrien Brody x5
I'm not the biggest Wes Anderson fan but I love the fact that he's continuing to evolve his style. Would love to see what his movies look like in another 20 years.
underrated comment:D.
Agree
Lol you think society will still exist as it does in 20 years just going to see a film. That's funny.
@Paul Green People may not "go" to the movies but they'll watch at home. You think Disney, as an example, will stop making movies in the next 20 years? Good luck with that.
Can't tell if sarcasm or serious haha
God I love Wes Anderon's style so much. One of the true artistic voices out there along with Tarantino and a few others. You just feel it in your bones that it's them when you watch a trailer, before even a few seconds have gone by.
It’s kinda a parody of itself at this point, there’s no other director whose style is so restrictive, all-encompassing, and un-real. characters with flat affect? check. symmetrical shots? check. pastel colors? check. and etc… like the twee, hipster equivalent of the marvel franchise. or david lynch if he spent his youth in portland and continuously refused to try anything new
out of all directors...you name tarantino...
@B C Your brain seriously hasn’t worked in decades if you’re actually calling having a style restrictive for being a style, being “all encompassing”, and not being real.
I have seen every one of Wes Anderson's films, and he never disappoints. They are truly bizarre, but in an enjoyable, likable way. The sets, colors, dialogue, camera angles....brilliant and unique. There is a REASON every big Hollywood name wants to be in his movies!
100%. I'd say some are slightly more forgettable as opposed to his top films which stay etched in your memory (Moonrise, Life Aquatic, Tenenbaums etc) but never bad, never even mediocre. Always at the very least a good, enjoyable experience that lifts your spirit.
I do think Isle of Dogs is a bit disappointing compared to his other works, but it’s because I didn’t quite resonate with the characters as much as I should. It’s still pretty good though.
@mackielunkey2205 I liked that but didn't like the French Dispatch
@kityhawk2000 I LOVED French Dispatch! But I can see it not being for everybody.
Imagine your movie being so stacked that you forgot to add Margot Robbie and Edward Norton in the trailer
and Willem Dafoe
and Bryan Cranston and William DaFoe
Maybe they are the aliens.. so they aren't being revealed yet
Did I miss Jeff Goldblum?
And Bill Murray
it's crazy how he always take the actors on his world and made them look like they were always from there
Concrete and who tells the costume designer what costumes to design?
Concrete It's a group effort; no one person/role does everything on their own. The costume designer/director comes up with designs based on input and feedback from the director (among others). If the director doesn't like it then they go back to the drawing board.
Yeah, that's part of the cinema industry...
Wes always nails one thing: The mundane awkwardness of a normal conversation. In a way, I think everything about his style of filming (the angles, pacing, color palate) is built around setting the tone for these moments. We see and feel the uncertainty of one spoken word to the next, and we smile, as we see ourselves.
When there is a whole pack of Hollywood stars in a movie yet everyone is talking about the Director you know that's a living legend right there.
My sister is that type to only recognize actors but she just texted me that she saw this Wes Anderson trailer at the theater and it made me feel so proud that she recognizes the name now, back then she would’ve said a weird movie you’d probably like 😂
A true auteur
Just wanna say, as somebody who works at Kodak, I'm so thrilled to see Wes using our film!!
And the yellow photo print paper boxes.
can you still me some Portra thanks
I was thinking as I watched the trailer "Geez those colours are gorgeous"
@David John Sure sure, which speed do you want? 😂
which kodak film was use in this movie?
I love the filter they add on all of their movies. It adds a cool effect like a retro summer or something. Love it
It’s not a filter, it’s mostly color coordination in terms of props, sets and costumes. Some Color correction too, but it mostly comes down to building a world.
@gt6808 lol no it's not a filter, it's to some extent what you say but it's actually mostly him using the kind of vintage film stock and cameras and high-saturation film processing that those "filters" in the photo apps are meant to try and simulate.
@oflightz yeh the saturated colors make me wonder if it’s push-processed
Wes Anderson's style is so distinctive that one can tell from the thumbnail it's his film.
I am glad we have like entire hollywood in this.
Its not his style, go watch some French new wave films
@zanejpeg every atistic thing is inspired by something else but it dose'nt mean it's not his style
I hate Wes Andersson.
@Laurence White whyd you click on this video then😭
Wes Anderson’s the only artist we go crazy for as his films become more and more like instagram filters
Or are Instagram filters becoming more and more like Wes Anderson films?
No! Instagram filters are becoming more and more like movies shot on Kodak film.
My favorite part about Wes’ movies is how well he knows and uses his actors. That last scene with Jason Schwartzman was hilarious.
My favourite thing about Wes Anderson films is despite the whimsical, almost childlike nature of their aesthetic there is a dark melancholy that permeates throughout the story. Really makes the buttoned down emotions of his characters sing
Jason looks great in this. Very different character to most he’s played. CANT WAIT to see this in theatres. Such a brilliant cast. And huge! So many amazing talents. Probably the largest known cast he’s ever worked with
Words cannot describe the excitement pulsating through my chest right now. This is the type of movie that you pause at every frame to absorb as many details as your eyeballs will allow.
Looks out of this world.
Most certainly!
The color palette is so good
Yes! shooting it was soo fun
Wes anderson should adapt spaceship day .
@Breaking_Bones_ Were you an extra or a part of the crew? I can't imagine how fun the shoot was!
Half way through the trailer I actually had to force myself from watching any further. I already know I'm gonna love this film. Wes Anderson movies are always such a visual treat! Can't wait to see this in the theater, huge fan.
Yay!! thanks!
Why would you not want to finish the trailer then?
@Havok211 some people me included like going into stuff blind makes it more worthwhile
Amazing to see Maya Hawke as a teacher in this one (compared to her other part as Robin on Stranger Things). Also a huge bonus for me was Steve Carell (my favorite actor). Even though he may not have a big part in the movie (as far as I see in this trailer) he nailed those few lines he had giving those General Mark R.Naird vibes (form Space Force).
Miss bill Murray tho
@Joe Kerr If it makes you better, but he was very close to being in the film, but he had COVID before he could film and he got replaced with Steve Carell
I bet so many well-known actors are just excitedly waiting for Wes Anderson to call them and ask them to be in his next movie. They always look so fun to act in.
I mean
Coming into the set of a Wes Anderson fipm feels like a fever dream.
We simply need a chain of Wes Anderson theaters - showing all his movies every day of the week. 🎥
Nobody needs that
@Yeezus
I rebuke you Yeezus, you keep those negative thoughts at the door...Yeezus.
@Justin Green its not a hit on wes andersons filmography… just saying realistically nobody actually really needs that👽
They're all on Disney Plus anyways...
@ZanFear that depends on the region of the world your in i think. I live in the states and D+ only has Isle of Dogs. No Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, Royal Tenenbaums, Life Aquatic, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Moonrise Kingdom, Grand Budapest Hotel, OR French Dispatch..... then again a lot of those are R and D+ still has very few of those types of movies on there lol.
I swear Wes Anderson’s movies just keep getting more Wes Andersony
This cast is a thousand times impressive and better than the one in Amsterdam did a year ago, and another because it's Wes Anderson, what did you expect?
Ironically, Margot Robbie was in both
Amsterdam wasn't good
@Attobrah Prince I didn't even bother watching it
@Attobrah Prince did Wes Anderson make a movie in Amsterdam?
@yokeleng leng no, he was talking about David O. Russel's "Amsterdam" from 2022
Scarlett just looks ridiculously beautiful. Plus she's always amazing playing slightly detached, aloof characters - which is basically everyone in a Wes Anderson film.
She’s overhyped.
@The Wise Owl lol, k...
@Clever Girl She is not the pinnacle of beauty imo. Many seem to think so and I disagree. She's a great actress though.
Love the Minnesota? accent
@The Wise Owl I feel like she's always playing the same character lately.
Every scene is like an arthouse photo from the mid 50s.
I cant wait.
Check out The Grand Budapest Hotel while you wait. The main story revolves around a painting, so naturally Wes Anderson made every single scene look like a painting.
This screams Wes Anderson and I love it. What an amazing cast, can't wait to watch this!
I adored the part where Owen Wilson said, “Wow” as Bruce Willis single handedly blew the asteroid in two.
Just like Once Upon A Time In Hollywood in 2019 and Licorice Pizza in 2021/2022, what a perfect summer film to treat us with this year. I can't wait to watch this in a cinema basked in the heat of the summer air - it is always one of my highlights of a summer to watch a film in the cinema at least once.
But both of those films were kinda meh, weren't they? Mildly interesting late entries in great filmmakers' careers that doesn't compare well against their best features. Fun to watch a single time and then barely remember they exist until someone else mentions them. Guess they can't all be gems. I'm sure I'll enjoy it while it's on, going in with such low expectations.
This is exactly how I wanted this movie to look
Like a Norman Rockwell?
It’s such a radical departure for Wes Anderson..
Overexposed?
Dude same. Finally getting some vintage 50’s alien vibes
The same as every other Wes Anderson movie?
I love how you know it’s Wes Anderson before the trailer even says it. Such a genius filmmaker
He's genuis cause he uses the same repetitive style over 20 years?
@widM well. His style is awesome. Nothing wrong with celebrating it??
I thought we'd never get that much sub bass in a Wes film. Dude's keeping it fresh with every one and that's why I'm such a fan
I love how in the first or second frame, you’re instantly able to tell it’s a Wes Anderson film.
I am a Wes Anderson fan. He never made a bad movie (my favorite of his movies is The Royal Tenenbaums) and honestly, this movie looks enjoyable. I might want to watch it at the theater when it comes out
❤Another master cast, another masterpiece I can’t get enough. 🎉
If I had a gazillion money, I would pay wes anderson to recreate all the iconic movies like aliens, titanic, fight club, the exorcist, jurassic park, harry potter, matrix, etc. just to see his version of them. That would be a blast. Lol.
SNL did a sketch (with Edward Norton) about what a horror movie would look like if it was directed by Wes Anderson.
@heimdal8 And it's incredible!
And less good than SNL but still cute was Conan O'Brien's Star Wars Audition by Wes Anderson with Han Solo at Mos Eisley
Ive always thought that he could make the perfect live action Scooby-Doo movie, and Im not like a super fan of Scooby-Doo, I just think it would work
Wes Anderson's Star Wars adaptation, where the Sith and the Jedi fight a bit and talk out their personal problems and leave on a melancholic note whole smoking cigarettes
I love Wes Anderson's style, it is so satisfying and distinctive from anything else.
Wes Anderson once again demonstrates his ability to wrangle half of Hollywood into one of his films. It won't be long before he makes an ensemble equivalent to that of Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, Robert Altman's Gosford Park and Charlie Kaufman's Synecdoche, New York combined.
or back in the day before Woody Allen wasn't reviled
I laughed more in the 2 1/2 minutes of that trailer than I have in any full length comedy in the past year. And it just LOOKS so damn cool.
"Im a widower, but dont tell my kids"
Has to be the best line of dialogue ive ever heard.
Always refreshing and relaxing. That's the vibe i always get with his movies..
When it comes to Wes Anderson’s movies is pure Cinematic Art.
Within several seconds watching the trailer I knew this is a Wes Anderson movie. His movies has a unique style of its own you can't miss.
Love the color pallette. Definitely needs to be enjoyed on the big screen.
I'm waiting for a Wes Anderson movie in which the characters refer to Wes Anderson. It would not be merely breaking the fourth wall, it would be… indescribable.
Is this trailer hinting that Margot Robbie and Edward Norton are going to be the aliens?
Bill Murray will be an alien in an uncredited cameo
And Willem and Jeff
@Windsor CopywritingMurray was going to be Steve Carrell's character but had to drop out due to COVID. Sorry.
@kino :) He recovered and later joined the set even though they had filmed most of his original character's scenes. So he is most likely going have a cameo role.
@Cristina Jara I wish that Jeff could play Dr. Who
I’m surprised Wes Anderson hasn’t done Sci-Fi yet. Now he really needs to do horror.
This appears to be a Wes Anderson love letter to the 50s, like Moonrise Kingdom captured the early 60s....both written in his signature style. A pitch perfect example of late 60s iconography would be Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." If you were a kid in the 60s you might be awed at how much these directors get right. Not just period details, but the feel of the times.
It's bizzare to see this trailer. I started to get interested in Wes Anderson's films when I saw some fanmade edit of Moonlight Kingdom around week ago. And I think that recently I became quite captivated by this kind of style of making movies. This fascination started pretty quickly and rapidly and even yesterday I was wondering what next Wes' film would look a like... So, it's a weird thing to discover the next day that there will be his newest film in June. I always have been told not to look for some signs from the uniwerse, but still it feels like this coincidence is too strange to be completely real.
Enjoy. All his films are top notch.
Tickets to the premiere are in the mail.
I can only imagine what a Wes Anderson Sci/fi movie would be like..😮
This looks like Wes turned the mannequins & fake town in the Nevada (nuclear bomb) Test Site from the 1950s into a movie. Love it! 😊
I always enjoy a good Wes Anderson film, this came out of no where and I’m just excited!
Jason Schwartzman hasn't been a lead in a Wes Anderson movie since The Darjeeling Limited, cool to see him playing a new kind of character for him.
Wes never fails making such distinct-looking movies. Like a mix of Looney Tunes. I'll need sunglasses to watch this, the colours really pop😎😅
Man, Tilda Swinton truly is one of the greatest method actors of all time. She nailed it as one of the little girls.
Another Brilliant film from Wes Anderson...YES!!!!! I love the saturated colours, the quality of the screen play and quality of the actors
Can’t believe it’s only a couple months away, very hyped!
There’s always an excitement to an Anderson Trailer, it’s feels comforting but slightly jarring but you know it will never disappoint.
Shouted to the high heavens when I heard my late Grandfather's song 'Freight Train' was chosen for this trailer! Makes me even more excited to watch this (inevitable) masterpiece.
One thing I people don't talk about enough is how Wes titles his movies. Each and every title is a linguistic masterpiece, that just rolls off the tongue and also perfectly depicts the style and theme of each movie.
As a graphic designer, I can say the color grading of this film is such a pure masterpiece! Kudos to the team.
LOVE it before watching it and even these comments blessed my eyes with some joyful tears ❤ All the cinematography Gods bless Wes Anderson! 🙏
Love it. It's like a prequel to Fallout. What's not to like? :-)
Watched the first twenty seconds and thought: 'No! No spoiling today.'
Can't wait. Looks exactly as I expected it to look, which in this case is a wonderful thing.
Started watching this and thought 'Cool! Another director is using Wes Anderson's style this could be good!' ...30 seconds later: 'Actually it's just Wes Anderson at it again!' Awesome. The man never stops.
the mechanisms for his dialog and soundtrack/fx stop and go with deadpan acting are just super fun. 10/10.
I’ve watched this trailer 20 times at least. I can’t wait to watch the full film!
Oscar for best production design confirmed
God I love Wes Anderson. I would pay $100 to see anything he directs
The colour palette and art direction are impeccable.
When a trailer is so good you stop watching the trailer because you know you just want to wait and watch the entire film without a single story point, character or image spoiled.
I can’t wait! The first wiff I get of a new Wes Anderson movie and I’m waiting in anticipation. This is what gets me back in the theater.
I love the cinematography this movie has. Looking forward to this one. ❤
14 year old Wes Anderson fan here! I've seen all of his movies multiple times, and I can't even begin to explain how excited I am for this one. My dad introduced me to Wes Anderson when I was still pretty young, and since then I've really grown to love his movies. Moonrise kingdom is literally my fav movie of all time, closely followed by The Grand Budapest Hotel, and The Royal Tenenbaums. I also LOVE Fantastic Mr. Fox. Okay I just love all his movies. Anyways I'm super excited to see this one!
It's actually great to see someone of your age so passionate about a film director!
Welcome to the club
I love it already! It looks so beautiful!
I’m here for maya hawke’s performance ( it will be amazing as always ❤️😁)
The most Wes Anderson movie since the last Wes Anderson movie.
I loved Grand Budapest Hotel and The French Dispatch. I imagine I will love this one, too.
I wish his movies would release everywhere. They’re so good
I swear even if there's no dialogue Wes's movies can tell a story
Love seeing that Stephen Park is in this. Underrated actor!
10 years later and this film is still a classic!
Wes Anderson's films are so absolutely interesting 👍 I love his style it's so different from everybody else
At first glance I said to myself "This is absolutely a Wes Anderson movie" and I am glad not to be wrong 😊
Another amazing cinematic masterpiece by the amazing Wes Anderson!
Wes Anderson saw the memes about his style of cinematography and decided to lean into it even harder. I respect that.
“How Wes Anderson would you like this film to be?”
“Yes”
I’m so happy to see ‘Gabe’ from Eighth Grade playing the son of Jason Schwartzman’s character… he was fucking fantastic in Eighth Grade and he is perfect for style/world of Wes Anderson. Not to mention he totally reminds me of a young version of Jason Schwartzman, on par with Rushmore, it’s perfect casting. I think we’ll see him in more of WA movies in the future
Lovely lovely guy - was really great working with him on this. His name is Jake Ryan, he’s very awesome.
@Aristou Meehan Yes I should have taken 2 seconds to google and use his actual name hahah but wow that’s so cool that you worked on this movie, congrats!
he's actually worked with Wes before. He played Lionel in Moonrise Kingdom.
@Steve James damn it. Now I feel like a fool. Lol regardless tho it’s cool to see him in a bigger role with Wes Anderson
@Steve James he was also in isle of dogs.
Been looking forward to seeing something about this for a while now. Heard about the cast and it being an original Wes Anderson movie last year and here it is
Nothing better than a new Wes Anderson film! 👍
Great cast. Definitely gonna see this one in theatres
wow. what a cast. and so wes andersony. love the feel to this, will have to see it!
The whole movie is a postcard. Amazing.
Wow! This looks like a really cool movie! I think that I'm going to actually risk seeing it in the theater when it comes out!
You don’t understand how excited I am that we have another Wes Anderson instalment!!
Oh my gosh a movie with Steve Carell my heart is going to explode
It's fitting that Anderson has joined forces with a Coppola. An American Zoetrope cinema member and a Texas born Gen X auteur writing a film together receives 100% of my approval. Only Tarantino and Altman can reel in a cast like this. Looking forward to it.
??? Wes anderson has been working with the Coppola family for years. Roman Coppola is a producer and Jason Schwartzman has always been in his movies
This looks so colorful! I must see this. Especially if it's made by Wes Anderson.
Wes Anderson is literally the best director out there
I can tell this movie will be filled with gems
