Updated: Production Weekly says the film is called, "Moonrise Kingdom." This is the same title that was dropped in /Film's comments section yesterday. We're hoping they didn't grab the information from there. Our emails and calls to Anderson's American Empirical productions have not been returned.Production Weekly has been hitting Twitter in a big way over the past 24 hours, and now they've dropped their biggest piece of news yet: Wes Anderson plans to shoot his next film in the spring of 2011.
We did some digging and while we don't have too many details yet, from what we've heard, the director is seeking a boy and a girl, aged 12 years old for the lead roles. So could Anderson be continuing in the vein of younger fare after the excellent "Fantastic Mr. Fox"? Could be. At any rate, he's already said he doesn't plan to direct "The Rosenthal Suite," his rewrite of the French comedy hit "My Best Friend" that he was linked to late last year. And we don't think it's the long-gestating script he and Noah Baumbach have been kicking around that doesn't quite seem finished anyway.
At any rate, it's a new Wes Anderson film to look forward to. We're excited and eager to see what the director has in store. Story was originally published 2:40 PM ET on September 29, 2010.
