Wes Anderson: THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX





My film correspondent in Rio de Janeiro just informed me about the 2009 release of Wes Anderson's joint THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX.
Shooting is currently going on in India and CNN had managed to pick up a brief interview with personal friend Owen Wilson. A pillar in Anderson productions Wilson told CNN:
"But I am going to do a movie with my friend Wes [Anderson] in India, and that's not going to be a buddy comedy movie. [I play] one of three brothers, and they go on this journey in India. I haven't really spoken to Wes yet in regards to what I can really talk about."

With a 2009 release "one of busiest filmakers working today" has the stop-motion Roald Dahl adaptation MR. FOX (with animation by the also-awesome HENRY SELICK) under a thousand keys. Special thanks to João Atala and Jonathan Frey for the tips. And extra special thanks to the tourist who just happened to be in the right place and the right time to get that great shot.
