Wes Anderson films may all look eerily similar with their diorama-like sets, careful symmetry, and saturated colors, but it’s hard not to enjoy the filmmaker’s precision, dry humor, and quirky stories. The first trailer for his next film, The Grand Budapest Hotel, has just been released, and it includes all of the Anderson tropes that you might hope for. The film follows a concierge at a hotel in Europe, who gets mixed up in a mystery of murder and theft. There are secret codes, quick zooms, and eccentric characters with a stellar cast to back them all up, including Anderson standbys like Bill Murray and Jason Schwartzman. The film is set to open in theaters on March 7th of next year, and you can watch the trailer below.
