Cannes 2025: Wes Anderson ratchets up the whimsy in The Phoenician Scheme, doesn’t stick the landing | Entertainment News

Cannes 2025: Wes Anderson ratchets up the whimsy in The Phoenician Scheme, doesn’t stick the landing | Entertainment News

If whimsy had an address, it would be Wes Anderson, whose confections can either delight or dismay. His Cannes competition entry The Phoenician Scheme has nestled firmly into the latter for me: his latest flight of fancy, quite literally, with his lead character traversing the skies in a private jet, being ejected at regular intervals, turns the film into a survival manual. The film is set in the 50s. Benicio Del Toro plays Zsa Zsa Korda, a wealthy businessman who has a half-brother (Benedict Cumberbatch, almost unrecognisable under a thatched beard), a daughter who is a nun, and nine sons. If Korda wasn’t properly eccentric, he wouldn’t be a Wes character: accordingly, he decides to bequeath his empire to Liesl (Mia Threapleton), whether she likes it or not. His current preoccupation lies somewhere in the Middle East, and off they jump into the jet, along with Bjorn (Michael Cera), a young Norwegian expert on all manner of creepy crawlies, who has been hired as tutor to his offspring. We never know why Bjorn is not …

Happy Birthday, Wes Anderson! Three underrated films that capture the wry essence of the auteur

May 01, 2025 05:20 PM IST His films are easy to recognize, but the emotions they stir are anything but. On his birthday, we look at three Anderson films that dive beneath the surface Hollywood director Wes Anderson’s name has always been synonymous with a droll tweness, and if you call yourself a fan, you must already be familiar with what it feels like to step into one of his carefully curated worlds full of melancholic humour. As the director celebrates another trip around the sun today, turning a ripe 56, here are some of his best renditions of a walk into the trembling psyche of being human in spring colours. The Royal Tenenbaums The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) Ah, The Royal Tenenbaums, arguably one of Anderson’s most popular works that thrust him into the bosom of stardom, this film is an American tragedy wrapped in retro pastels. The story revolves around three emotionally stunted genius siblings whose lives are upended after they hear about their father’s (played by Gene Hackman) imminent death. A rich portrayal …

The Phoenician Scheme trailer: Europe’s famed oligarch teams up with his nun daughter for a high-stakes game in Wes Anderson’s spy comedy | Hollywood News

The Phoenician Scheme trailer: After surviving his sixth recorded airplane crash, Zsa-Zsa Korda (Benicio del Toro), one of the richest men in Europe, appoints his only daughter, Liesl (Mia Threapleton), a nun, as the sole heir to his estate. Interestingly, Korda made this decision by overlooking his nine sons. But why? And that too despite not sharing a close bond with his daughter? Notably, they hadn’t even met in six years before this new development. “I have my reasons,” he replies to her question, though he hesitates to elaborate. Yet, it soon becomes clear that he has a motive, and it is related to The Phoenician Scheme. The trailer for auteur director Wes Anderson’s upcoming movie is here, sparking just as much intrigue as his previous films have. While the 144-second promo begins by offering glimpses of Korda’s empire and family dynamics, it soon reveals that his current objective is to “disrupt, obstruct, impede and cripple Cortis Enterprise in any manner possible.” For this, he needs the help of his nun daughter. The trailer also shows …

Bill Murray Pays Heartfelt Tribute to Gene Hackman; Recalls How Late Actor Was ‘Difficult’ on Set With Wes Anderson

Bill Murray Pays Heartfelt Tribute to Gene Hackman; Recalls How Late Actor Was ‘Difficult’ on Set With Wes Anderson

Bill Murray has recently paid tribute to late actor Gene Hackman looking back fondly on his career. He recalled both the Oscar-winning actor’s greatness and the difficulties he had to work with on set. After Hackman’s death, Murray gave a frank interview with the Associated Press about their collaboration on The Royal Tenenbaums (2001). He described how the older actor was especially demanding of director Wes Anderson. Murray said, “He was a tough nut, Gene Hackman, but he was really good and he was really difficult.” Characterizing Hackman as a “tough nut,” Murray said that veteran actors tend to be difficult for new directors, and Hackman was no different. He would regularly challenge Anderson, who was then in his early 30s. Murray, who acted with Hackman in the movie, would frequently intervene to defend his friend. “Like, we can say it now, but he was a tough guy because older great actors do not give young directors much of a chance. They’re really rough on ’em. Gene was really rough on Wes and I used …
