Still from Asteroid City

Grab your space-suits and Stetsons kids, Wes Anderson is launching us into the desert for the 1955 Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet Convention! 

Wes Anderson (The French Dispatch, Moonrise Kingdom, Fantastic Mr. Fox) reunites with long-term collaborators Scarlett Johansson, Jason Schwartzman and Adrien Brody in his latest cinematic delight. 

Recognisable for his deliciously symmetrical and elaborately meandering pastel sets, Anderson's latest feat takes us deep into the US dust-bowl for the 1955 Junior Stargazer convention. What should be an exciting week of space, talks and networking takes a planetary turn that will change the entire world...

This convention doesn't hold back on stars, with Maya Hawke, Steve Carrell, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Edward Norton and Bryan Cranston among others joining the ranks.
