Wes Anderson has some all-star subjects wanting to live in his 'Moon Rise Kingdom'

Rumor has it that a Wes Anderson shoots are loads of fun. That combined with the almost guaranteed critical acclaim the resulting films garner, the young director attracts some pretty A-list talent every time a casting call goes out for one of his movies. 

The talent in line to join his "Moon Rise Kingdom," co-written with Roman Coppola and shooting next spring, is no exception. Deadline reports that Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, Frances McDormand, and Tilda Swinton are all vying for rolls in the 60's period story. Revolving around the disappearance of a very young couple and how a small town reacts, "Moon Rise Kingdom" is sure to be full of the quirky characters Anderson is known for, played by talent that can surely handle the roles.
