This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
The Phoenician Scheme is an upcoming espionage black comedy film produced, written and directed by Wes Anderson from a story he conceived with Roman Coppola. The film will feature an ensemble cast including Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Mathieu Amalric, Richard Ayoade, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, and Hope Davis. An international co-production between the United States and Germany, it will be produced by Anderson's company American Empirical Pictures and Steven Rales's company Indian Paintbrush.
Anderson talked about the film in June 2023 while promoting Asteroid City; he said it had already been written before the 2023 WGA strike began. That September, he revealed that del Toro and Cera were planned to join the cast, and he hoped to begin filming soon after the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike ended. The rest of the cast signed on between January and June 2024. Filming took place at Babelsberg Studio in Germany, between March and June 2024, with cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel. Frequent Anderson collaborator Alexandre Desplat returned to compose the score.
The Phoenician Scheme will premiere in the main competition of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, before being released theatrically in the United States on May 30, 2025.
