Bill Murray as God? Wes Anderson Spills

Wes Anderson says casting Bill Murray as God in The Phoenician Scheme might’ve been divine intervention—literally. Apparently, once Murray showed up in robes and a beard, it just felt right. The afterlife scenes? All practical effects, no CGI, and a wild biblical squad with F. Murray Abraham, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and Willem Dafoe. Anderson calls it a Renaissance painting in black and white. Honestly, who else could pull off an “informal God” vibe like Murray? #WesAnderson #BillMurray #ThePhoenicianScheme
