Wes Anderson, Luke Wilson, together again
Cnn has an interesting little interview with Owen Wilson, currently doing the publicity tour for apparent piece of crap 'You, Me and Dupree'. Wilson reveals that after Wes Anderson has finished 'The Fantastic Mr.Fox', and he has finished his current batch of films they plan to work on another film together.
"I am going to do a movie with my friend Wes [Anderson] in India, and that's not going to be a buddy comedy movie. [I play] one of three brothers, and they go on this journey in India. I haven't really spoken to Wes yet in regards to what I can really talk about."
A Wes Anderson road trip movie would be amazing, any excuse to use Kumar Pallana again, the actor that played 'Pagoda' in The Royal Tenebaums.

Royal: He saved my life, you know. Thirty years ago. I was knifed at a bazaar in Calcutta, and he carried me to the hospital on his back.
Ari: Who stabbed you?
[Royal motions to Pagoda again]
Royal: He did. There was a price on my head, and he was a hired assassin. Stuck me in the gut with a shiv.
