Writer-director Wes Anderson, a cult favorite whose 2001 effort "The Royal Tenenbaums" proved a crossover success, is set to head out to sea for his next project, "The Life Aquatic." Ending months of speculation, Anderson and Touchstone Pictures have revealed details of the upcoming film that reunites the helmer with several of his "Royal" cast members, including Bill Murray, Owen Wilson and Anjelica Huston. The project also will feature several actors new to working with the director, including Jeff Goldblum, Peter Stormare and Bud Cort. Wally Wolodarsky also is tentatively attached to join the cast, pending his availability. Penned by Anderson and Noah Baumbach, "Aquatic" tells the story of oceanographer Steve Zissou and his crew and their misadventures in deep-sea exploration.
--Great to hear Wes' new project is underway! I'm especially glad to see Jeff Goldblum's in the cast, he seems a perfect fit for Anderson's style.

Dipak Pallana always reminds me of Goldblum. I hope they have a scene together.

I like Wes Anderson and the Wilsons, so i'm looking forward to it.
Bill Murray in a starring role this time would be GREAT!! He is one of my favorites and most of his recent stuff has been small supporting roles.

The Life Aquatic
Has anyone heard of a tentative release date for this. IMDB has it in "post production" and I didn't spot it in the 2004 release list.
It's Wes Anderson's new flick where Bill Murray is an oceanographer.
Different.
I am champing at the bit now.
What's the word?

Well it's...Wes Anderson so I'm quite optimistic. I've heard he's employed Henry Selick (or at least his animation crew) for stop motion segements in the film.
nonetheless, sounds very interesting...can't wait to see it.

Really looking forward to this... anyway, comingsoon.net lists the release date as December 2004. Hopefully they stick to that.
