Acclaimed director Wes Anderson, fresh off his 2023 Oscar win for Live Action Short "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar," is rolling out his twelfth feature-length film, "The Phoenician Scheme." Below are the details on how you can catch this highly-anticipated movie in theaters.
One of the Top Summer Indie Movie Picks for 2025, "The Phoenician Scheme" has already garnered a "Certified Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes. While it's yet to be seen if it'll join the ranks of the best Wes Anderson movies, audience feedback offers a promising start.
If you're interested in watching the film for yourself, here's the scoop on catching "The Phoenician Scheme" in movie theaters:
US Theatrical Release:Initially opening in select movie theaters in Los Angeles and New York, "The Phoenician Scheme" will expand nationwide on June 6. Meanwhile, it's currently playing in cinemas across the UK. To find out more about screening locations and showtimes, visit the official movie website or utilize Fandango.
Alternatively, if you have a preferred movie theater, check their website for screening details. In some cases, theatre subscriptions and membership programs may provide benefits like free or discounted tickets, concession deals, and exclusive perks.
Streaming Availability:Regrettably, as of now, "The Phoenician Scheme" is not accessible for streaming at home. When home viewing options become available, they will likely debut on digital on-demand platforms like Amazon, Apple TV, or Google Play, followed by a streaming service acquisition, presumably on Peacock in the US, given Focus Features is owned by NBCUniversal, Peacock's parent company.
Throughout the film, Anderson reunites with a star-studded cast, including Benicio Del Toro, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Mathieu Amalric, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, and Hope Davis. Newcomers to the Anderson fold include Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, and Richard Ayoade.
"The Phoenician Scheme" tells the story of a wealthy European man (portrayed by Del Toro) with a penchant for intricate schemes, while also attempting to elude assassination and maintain his relationship with his daughter (played by Threapleton).
