Yoko Ono To Star Wes Anderson’s New Film

The kooky artist joins stellar stop-motion cast for the upcoming feature Isle of Dogs

She is as well-known for her offbeat antics as she is her prolific art, so it makes sense that Yoko Ono would appeal to the sensibilities of Wes Anderson, a filmmaker adored for his quirky and charming style.

The cult director posted a video announcing his new film, which will be made in the UK, and listed off the A-list cast which included: Bill Murray, Bryan Cranston, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Scarlett Johansson, Greta Gerwig, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Akira Ito, Akira Takayama, Koyu Rankin, Courtney B. Vance and Edward Norton.

Anderson also explained in the video message that one lucky fan can win a voice role in the film by buying an online raffle ticket through CrowdRise. All proceeds will go to Martin Scorsese’s Film Foundation, which works to restore old pictures that could potentially be lost.

Very little else is known of the film, which will be Anderson’s 9th, but it certainly has a lot to live up to following the phenomenal success of The Grand Budapest Hotel. Anderson also made his first Christmas advert this year for high street giant H&M.
