Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch gets a new poster

August 6, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Searchlight Pictures has revealed a poster for Wes Anderson’s comedy drama The French Dispatch, which is inspired by The Beatles’ iconic ‘Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ album cover and showcases the film’s impressive ensemble cast; take a look 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.
