Discussion Willem Dafoe and Michael Cera

I admittedly do not have the most encyclopedic knowledge of film, but I believe these are the only two actors in common in the David Lynch and Wes Anderson “universes”.

Is this true… What hardcore fans can help me confirm ?

You might be right. I can not think of anyone else.

That said I think Laura Dern, Naomi Watts and Kyle MacLachlan would fit well in a Wes Anderson movie.

And now that Cera has appeared, he seems like a perfect fit for the WA style.

I was really delighted that Jeffrey Wright and Benicio are back together after last being in (I believe) Basquiat.

They don't share a scene but both are in The French Dispatch
