WesAnderson experienced an unfortunate ending to his evening after celebrating his directorial debut, Bottle Rocket.
On July 6, Anderson, along with the film’s star LukeWilson and producer James L. Brook, appeared at the Academy Museum in Los Angeles, Calif., for a Q&A and screening of the film 30 years after its premiere.
After the event, the trio found themselves stuck in an elevator for around half an hour. The Los Angeles Fire Department was able to free them, along with others trapped in the elevator.
In a video posted on social media by production specialist CarolynDunn, Anderson appears in an all-white suit, walking up to the LAFD and asking them, “Do you have any theory as to what was wrong with it?” One of the firefighters responded, “Probably had too much weight in it.” The director said, “Okay, thank you very much.”
Dunn captioned the video, “Director Wes Anderson and writer/producer James L. Brooks saved by the Los Angeles Fire Department from a broken elevator! ?? 30th Anniversay of “Bottle Rocket”. Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. ?️??️”
View this post on InstagramOn X, Save Your Cinema claimed the elevator was “a secret passageway/elevator so celebrities can enter and exit without” at the Museum, but it has not been confirmed whether that is accurate.
It is clear that the elevator appears to exit outside in the museum's courtyard, near the valet parking. In the video, a black car is shown waiting. There is a separate elevator that screening viewers most likely used inside the venue.
Bottle Rocket was released in 1996 and starred Luke and OwenWilson, JamesCaan, and RobertMusgrave. Anderson won his first Academy Award in 2024 for The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar after having been nominated seven previous times. He is known for projects such as The Royal Tenenbaums, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and Moonrise Kingdom.
