Everything We Know About ‘The Phoenician Scheme’ So Far
Read on for news and updates about Wes Anderson's latest film, 'The Phoenician Scheme' starring Benicio del Toro.
Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Mathieu Amalric, Richard Ayoade, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, and Hope Davis make up the ensemble. In the footage shown at CinemaCon, Korda, “international businessman, maverick in the fields of armament and aviation” according to the film’s trailer, names his daughter, one of his ten children, as heir, not disclosing why but notifying all that he’s embarking on “the most important project of my lifetime.” Desert scenes follow in the luxurious family villa with brisk dialogue, funny facial hair, gunshots and an outed assassin who pops a suicide pill as Liesl says last rites. He hints that Liesl, the only daughter and “one nun” of his ten children who he names sole heir to his estate, “may come into it sooner rather than later.” She questions why, as it has been six months since their last meeting.
