Asteroid City (2023)
Asteroid City: a fictional American desert town, circa 1955. Junior stargazers and space cadets from across the country assemble for the annual Asteroid Day celebration—but the scholarly competition is spectacularly upended by world-changing events.
From Oscar winner Wes Anderson (The Grand Budapest Hotel), Asteroid City is led by Teen Choice nominee Jason Schwartzman (Moonrise Kingdom), Oscar nominee Scarlett Johansson (Jojo Rabbit, Black Widow), and Oscar winner Tom Hanks (Forrest Gump, Elvis). The star-packed ensemble also includes the likes of Adrien Brody, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Jeffrey Wright, Margot Robbie, Tilda Swinton, and many more.
Boasting the highest-ever opening for a Wes Anderson film in wide release, Asteroid City was nominated for the Critics Choice Super Award for Best Science Fiction/Fantasy Movie, a 2024 Critics Choice Award for its Production Design, and Comedy Movie of the Year at the People’s Choice Awards, among other accolades.
In their 4/5-star review, The Guardian says, “Wes Anderson’s 1950s sci-fi is an exhilarating triumph of pure style… terrifically entertaining and lightly sophisticated.”
