Although Wes Anderson has been making the publicity rounds for The Darjeeling Limited, this doesn't mean he's been lazy on his next project. Anderson leaked some info about The Fantastic Mr. Fox , announced late last year to be his next film, to MTV, saying that "George Clooney is going to be Mr. Fox. Bill Murray has a part. Jason [Schwartzman] is doing a voice. That's our team."
He also related some other pertinent info about the film, mainly that it will be a stop-motion picture, though not claymation. "The settings will be very natural. We want to use real trees and real sand, but it's all miniature," Anderson said. The director co-wrote the film with Noah Baumbach, and it is based on Roald Dahl's book of the same name.
The film is currently slated for a November 6, 2009 release, so don't hold your breath for any more developments in the near future.
