Mary, Queen of Scots star Saoirse Ronan is set to reunite with The Grand Budapest Hotel director Wes Anderson as part of the star-studded cast of the filmmaker’s new project The French Dispatch.

The French Dispatch is described as “a love letter to journalists set at an outpost of an American newspaper in 20th-century Paris and centers on three storylines.”
Ronan has had a busy 2018, appearing in On Chesil Beach, The Seagull and Mary, Queen of Scots, as well as reuniting with her Lady Bird director Greta Gerwig on Little Women, which is set for release on Christmas Day 2019.
