Focus Features Picks Up Wes Anderson's 'Moonrise Kingdom' Project


We already knew that director Wes Anderson had officially chosen his next film as Moonrise Kingdom, a project which he co-wrote with Roman Coppola (who previously worked with Anderson on The Darjeeling Limited). If the cast which includes Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman and regular Anderson collaborator Bill Murray wasn't exciting enough, Deadline has learned that Focus Features, the people who have brought us such spectacular films as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Pianist have now officially acquired the rights to the promising project.

The story follows two young adults who fall in love and run away in the 60's. Assuming that the lovers have disappeared, the leaders of their New England town go searching for them. Norton is playing a scout leader who brings his expertise to the search while Willis will play a character having an affair with McDormand's character, the missing girl's mother. Murray, on the other hand, will play the girl's father who, of course, has his own issues. Still no word on what role Schwartzman has in the film, but his presence is good enough for me. Always good to hear a fine company like Focus Features putting their weight behind a great filmmaker like Wes Anderson.
