LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: As we know Wes Anderson’s latest science fiction romantic comedy-drama film, 'Asteroid City' is heading to the Cannes Film Festival but now the film has dropped the first look photos of the ensemble cast, and boy, do they look completely stunning in it. Speaking of the ensemble cast, it features Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Liev Schreiber, Hope Davis, Stephen Park, Rupert Friend, Maya Hawke, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau, Willem Dafoe, Margot Robbie, Tony Revolori, Jake Ryan, and Jeff Goldblum.

Furthermore, the movie also dropped a new trailer recently where we see the Anderson movie following a group of people, who are quarantined in 'Asteroid City' during an annual celebration after reports of an alien encounter reach the ears of the U.S. government. With a charming amount of kitsch, the trailer evokes everything we’ve come to love about Anderson’s films and promises a mystery to unravel at the theaters. 'Asteroid City' is set in the 1950s in a fictional American desert town. At a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention, which is designed to unite students and parents in scholarly competition, chaos ensues as world-changing events take place.
