About

Wes Anderson (born 1969, Houston, Texas) is an American film director and screenwriter whose instantly recognizable style - symmetrical framing, pastel color palettes, and deadpan wit - has made him one of the defining auteurs of his generation. The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) won four Academy Awards and grossed over $174 million worldwide; in 2025 it was inducted into the U.S. National Film Registry. His thirteenth feature, the espionage black comedy The Phoenician Scheme, premiered in competition at Cannes in May 2025.
