Scarlett Johansson, Maya Hawke, And A Bunch Of Other Cast Members From "Asteroid City" Actually Did The Wes Anderson TikTok Trend, And It's Great
In case you haven't heard of it yet, Asteroid City is the next aesthetically pleasing, quirky film from filmmaker Wes Anderson — best known for The Grand Budapest Hotel, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and a bunch of other cute and charming films.
The cast of Asteroid City is STACKED, by the way, with people like 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.
And if you don't spend a million minutes a day on TikTok like ~some of us~ do, you should know there's been a popular Wes Anderson trend circulating on the app for over a month.
The trend basically has people romanticizing simple, everyday life by emulating Wes Anderson's film style in their TikTok videos — i.e., making shots symmetrical, using specific color palettes, and, of course, setting it all to a song from Anderson's last film, The French Dispatch.
And in a very meta move, the cast of Anderson's Asteroid City recently collaborated with popular TikToker Reece Feldman (@guywithamoviecamera) to jump on the trend. Check it out:
