The French Dispatch promos feature Owen Wilson, Francis McDormand and Benicio Del Toro

August 25, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Searchlight Pictures has released three promos for Wes Anderson’s comedy drama The French Dispatch which put the spotlight on the stories of Owen Wilson’s cycling reporter, Frances McDormand’s Journalist and Benicio Del Toro’s criminally insane painter; watch them here…

On the death of its beloved Kansas-born editor Arthur Howitzer, Jr., (Bill Murray) the staff of The French Dispatch, a widely circulated American magazine based in the French city of Ennui-sur-Blasé, convenes to write his obituary. Memories of Howitzer flow into the creation of four stories: a travelogue of the seediest sections of the city itself from The Cycling Reporter; “The Concrete Masterpiece,” about a criminally insane painter, his guard and muse, and his ravenous dealers; “Revisions to a Manifesto,” a chronicle of love and death on the barricades at the height of student revolt; and “The Private Dining Room of the Police Commissioner,” a suspenseful tale of drugs, kidnapping and fine dining.

The film stars Benicio Del Toro, Adrien Brody, Léa Seydoux, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Timothée Chalamet, Lyna Khoudri, Jeffrey Wright, Mathieu Amalric, Stephen Park, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Christoph Waltz, Edward Norton, Jason Schwartzman, Anjelica Huston, Saoirse Ronan, Liev Schreiber, Willem Dafoe, Rupert Friend, Fisher Stevens, Henry Winkler, Alex Lawther, and Tony Revolori.

The French Dispatch arrives in cinemas on October 22nd.
