Asteroid City is a new romantic comedy-drama written and directed by Anderson. The film takes place in 1955 and centers on a Junior Stargazer convention held in a fictional American desert town.

The movie had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May, where Johansson discussed working with Anderson.

"You're in it," the actress said of being on set. "He very much creates the whole environment, and it's a physical, tangible, usable space."
