Asteroid City available now

Asteroid City is now on digital, and Blu-ray and DVD August 15th from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.

Wes Anderson fans just get it. There is no mistaking the style and whimsy of his films, plus no one uses a color palette like Wes. Why does every actor on the planet want to be in his movies? Again, Anderson fans know why.

A fictional American desert town, circa 1955. Junior Stargazers and Space Cadets from across the country assemble for the annual Asteroid Day celebration — but the scholarly competition is spectacularly upended by world-changing events. Equal parts comedy, drama, and romance (with a touch of science-fiction).
