10 Upcoming Movies With INSANE Casts
10. Asteroid City
Wes Anderson isn't exactly a stranger to amassing colossal ensemble casts for his movies, and given how many actors return to work with him every single time, his cabal of regular performers are often likened to a travelling acting troupe.
But for his new movie Asteroid City, Anderson has truly gone above and beyond, assembling an eye-wateringly star-studded cast which easily stands as his most extensive and celebrated to date.
Asteroid City counts over 20 name actors among its cast, who between them have five Oscar wins and 20 Oscar nominations. Here we go:
Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Liev Schreiber, Hope Davis, Steve Park, Rupert Friend, Maya Hawke, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau, Willem Dafoe, Margot Robbie, Tony Revolori, Jake Ryan, and Jeff Goldblum.
While it's reasonable to assume that most of these actors will only appear for a small handful of scenes, it'll still be a delight to see them sharing the screen together. And above all else, Tom Hanks in a Wes Anderson movie? Let's go.
Ironically, though, Anderson's most prolific collaborator, Bill Murray, won't be appearing in the film, due to contracting COVID-19 shortly before he was meant to film his scenes.
