ISLE OF DOGS | Meet the Cast from Wes Anderson's Stop-Motion Animated Movie

A promotional interview like this could've been so quick and easy to do, but no--with a Wes Anderson film, you get incredible, painstaking animation even for something that currently has about 140K views. I love it.

They animated the interviews. Not only that but they gave certain interviews a little more attention to detail, like Bill Murray getting interviewed in a car or Edward Norton basically eating his mic so the stop motion reflects the condition of the recording. Very cool.

Haha! I love Rex with the microphone, making it look like he’s actually interacting with it and making it sound fuzzy and all that.

That little detail of Rex speaking into the mic when the actor’s voice was louder and looking away from it when it’s lower...man, the attention to detail is amazing, and this is just for an interview. Awesome.

Jeff Goldblum is a national treasure. A very weird treasure.

I love how they used stop motion for the interview too! Props to the animators, they really work a lot for stop motions

I love the fact that Tilda Swinton is a pug

Only Anderson can pull off something like this.

"The heart of a Dog is a bottomless thing." Favorite quote of this year.

"The heart of a dog is a bottomless thing" - wow, that's a wonderful insight and way of putting it. Boss also has some extremely wise and insightful things to say! I cannot wait for this film! -from what I've personally seen of it, Isle of Dogs looks to be a masterful work of beautiful art.

I have watched Goldblum’s interview so many times. The facial expression on the animation, the nonchalant movements.. spot on and completely hilarious.

this is so extra I love it, like how every little camera sound and vocal fluctuation is perfectly translated into the animated version this is so great

I love that this whole thing is basically a nod to creature comforts by Aardman studios.

Can we make Jeff Goldblum immortal please

''What does Nutmeg see in chief...'' I love how Chief instantly turns his head to her at that and then sits there pretending he's not listening. ;P

This is giving me so much happiness right now.

"The Heart of a Dog is a bottomless thing." ... Made me cry.

they should make plushies of the characters

It’s quite funny how they worked around the quality of the recordings, distracting but cute

SPOTSU... SPOTSU...

I think all cast interviews should now be done like this. Doesn't matter what the move is about or if it's animated just do the interviews like this. It would make them 100 times more interesting.

ONLY Wes could have the cast interviewed AS their characters - how original and splendidly WES!!

I love how they animated this in such a way as to incorporate all the little additional things in the audio. Like Bill Murray is obviously in a car or something so they have Boss in a moving cart, and there's a few clicks and things in the second Murray part so they added a little shake to the cart thing to make up for it. Or Ed Norton going from loud to quiet so they have Rex face away from the microphone and also banging in to it, haha. I love those little details.

Gosh this is such a fantastic film. I wish the dogs had been fleshed out a bit more character-wise (other than spots, of course. He was fine). They all seemed pretty samey to me? Anyone else feel this way? Anyways it’s still one of my favorite films. Thanks, Wes.

scarlett johansson's voice is amazing

I could watch these interviews a hundred times over and I'd get the warm fuzzies each and every time. I can't remember ever feeling like Jeff Goldblum was cast as a character in a movie or TV show; instead, it's always felt like writers just wrote Jeff Goldblum into their narratives. I also can't stop giggling at the image of Bob Balaban in dog form, dressed as Little Jewish Puppy Lord Fauntleroy.

BEST. ASMR. VIDEO. EVER.

i'm in love with the cast of this movie

WHAT a voice F Murray Abraham has!!!!!!!!!!!

My class watched it. We all cried at several moments. A wonderful little movie

4:29 i love how Tildas voice suits that pug

Liev Schereiber in this interview was every bit as enrapturing as when he actually played Spots in the movie. Just brilliant.

It's one of my favourite movies..... ever .... thank you 🙏 ❤️

It sounds like the voice actors recorded these snippets themselves, and Edward messed his one up, so seeing the animators translate that into animation is just (chef's kiss)

Dukes part made my heart grow, I love Jeff goldblum

I got 4 Marvel actors here 1.Edward Norton 2.Jeff Goldblum 3.Scarlett Johansson 4.Tilda Swinton

Oracle, Duke and Rex are so cute 😍 Tilda sounds so lost as Oracle. 😂😂

Just coming back to reminisce when I saw this film. My dog had just died... peacefully and we're all distraught about it. I used a quote from this clip said by Tilda Swinton where she said, "The Heart of a Dog is a Bottomless Thing". Could never have been far from the truth

This movie is going to be awesome.

Stop motion animation is a rare thing these days, so much work goes into creating every expression, every movement, there is something so incredibly authentic about it, as opposed to the CGI crammed into every other modern film.

I love this. I really, REALLY love this.

I love how when Tilda Swinton abruptly finished her interview as if in mid-sentence, they portrayed her character looking awkward and confused for the next few seconds hahahaha.

Their voices!!! 😍 Especially Ed Norton and Jeff Goldblum!!!!

I love how they engineered certain kinks in the audio into the animation to give it a more organic feel.

This movie was amazing. I adored each dog and soon I was rooting for them. I have never seen a movie like this. I will definitely be purchasing this movie when it comes out for download.

2:53 HAHA I love how they made Chief listen to her! So adorable

I love everything about this movie 😍😍😍

Anyone who is excited for this film and has not seen "The Life Aquatic", or "The Fantastic Mr Fox" should go watch them right NOw!!

This film was incredible. If you're a stopmotion or Wes Anderson fan, this is a great film, if stop motion might creep someone out with Uncanny Valley faces, it might not be the best choice. It truly is a masterpiece visually and the soundtrack is something I want to buy soon as possible. It was akin in a lot of ways to all Wes' films, but it has the biggest contrasts in some ways to his other work too. It's a lot of tribute to old classic Japanese films and theater and mural artworks and early propaganda posters as much as Wes' artistic thumbprint, and they synchronize beautifully. It's probably his darkest film, in some odd ways, yet the feel is always lighthearted and relaxed and unoppressive. I think it might be one of the most peculiar original films, and oddly, when you think hard about it, might be the closest thing we can come to a retelling of 'Plague Dogs'....as a comedy. Seeing that be written in a sentence is one of the strangest things ever if you're an animation fan. But it's true. And it works.

The amount of facial expression they manage to create with a dog is amazing

I anticipated this movie the a year and when it finally was in theaters I saw it ASAP! Loved it so much! The storyline I unique and heartfelt, then again Wes's movies are always so wonderful!

I love how Jeff Goldblum "zeng" Take the A Train, he´s just a legend you cant put it in words really...

I love how they have the environment match the audio recording

I'm gonna watch this movie all over again. Instantly become my comfort movie along with Ghibli's. Thank you Wes & production Team for making this beautiful movie ❤

The mouse at 2:20 ..... HILARIOUS!

I love this movie. Well I think the story isnt that special but the execution (sculptures, animation and also composition of shots) is fantastic.

Jeff Goldblum never dissapointing us like always

Saw this, this morning. Great film, I loved it. Definitely one to see if you enjoyed this short.

Jeff Goldblum is pure comedian even in interviews

They made the extra effort to make this stop motion, something that takes much longer than just recording the interview itself, I think that shows the level of care put into this movie.

油断していましたが、これは 私の人生で一番好きな映画かもしれません。 I love dogs.

The animation is so good! They got the anatomy and movement of the doggos spot on. So excited for this, as I loved "Fantastic Mr. Fox."

"Of course Duke Ellington!"

the heart of a dog is bottomless thing

I saw the movie last night and I liked it. I recommend it to those who already appreciate Anderson's dry humor.

Jeff goldblum is pure gold

I WANNA SEE THIS MOVIE SO BAD!

Goldblum already stole the show for me lol

Isle of dogs I think is the best stop motion movie

Definitely one of the best Wes Anderson films! I love this movie!

The animation even for this is nothing short of mesmerizing for me. Animation in itslef is already painstakingly hard to do. Let alone stop-motion which is basically that but on very powerful steroids. The effort needed to make even a second of stop-motion must be almost incomprehensible, from my eyes. I watched this movie, and it is just amazing. Thanks. Cheers from an amateur Anglo-brazilian creator.

This interview deserve more creditt!!

When I saw Bryan on the cast, I had to see this.

Aaaaaah Mister Anderson...this is how you see the world, isn't it?

What a terrific, above and beyond special feature, made with great care. So fun. The Wes is the best.

The animation is so good. I love and admire all the people behind this magnificent work.

4:30 I came for Tilda Swinton.

I love this movie, maybe because of the talking dogs. :D

I love it! Tipical Wes-movie!!!

My goodness. As much fun to watch as the movie. Amazing

The stop motion looks so real

I always crack up at 0:49. That face when he says "...well.." 😂

I will pay money to see any film that Wes Anderson creates. And probably more than once. This is more than I can say for any other person making films today.

So awesome dogs... who talk, even more awesome

I love this film so much. This is very cool lol. Watching this clip at work is making me miss my own dog, Raja. I can't wait to go home and play with him.

everyone talking about jeff which is fair because he’s a treasure but BRYAN is spectacular

I just fucking died laughing at Tilda Swinton as a fucking pug!

Wes Anderson is my favorite! I loved his use of pastel colors in Moonrise Kingdom and the grand budapest hotel. This movie is going to be cool.

Jeff is hysterical

Such a great movie. Worth the watch. The story and detail is amazing. 🐶

I would gladly spend an afternoon 🐕 sitting any of these pups.

Jeff Golblum is a gift from heaven to humanity

This is so weird! But interesting...

Edward norton has a cute voice, he’s so sweet

This is amazing! I wish all movies would still do this.

Just. Brilliant.

Tilda Swinton voicing a pug! So friggin cute

I thought Chief was played by Bill Shatner, before looking it up after the movie. I love that Jeff Goldblum made is character hum the Duke Ellington song.

Why haven't I seen this before? They put so much for in it. I love it.
