While many are still waiting to watch director Wes Anderson‘s October release “The French Dispatch,” the filmmaker is already assembling a cast for his next pic, an untitled film reportedly heading into production this week in Spain.
The Hollywood Reporter has revealed two more additions to the secretive film’s cast. The outlet states that British actor Rupert Friend (“Obi-Wan Kenobi,” “Homeland,” “The Death of Stalin“) and longtime collaborator Jason Schwartzman (“Rushmore,” “The Darjeeling Limited, “The French Dispatch”) have joined the untitled project.
The duo of actors will join a cast that already consists of Margot Robbie (“The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Bombshell“), Tilda Swinton (“The Moonrise Kingdom,” “Snowpiercer,” “Suspiria“), Adrien Brody (“The Grand Budapest Hotel“), Bill Murray (“Rushmore,” “Life Aquatic“), and Tom Hanks (“News of The World,” “Saving Private Ryan“) in a small cameo.
They also added that production has been moved up to this week and complete in late September.
With plot details likely being locked up in a stylish antique briefcase, we can really only speculate what this new movie will be about.
