Wes Anderson’s latest film, The Darjeeling Limited, is to be accompanied by a 12-minute short called Hotel Chevalier. This is said to be a prequel to the main feature. Now I can reveal that the short film will star two very big names.

Natalie Portman and Jason Schwartzman apparently star in the short film. Portman also features briefly in the main film, The Darjeeling Limited. The short film takes place in one room of a French hotel (Hotel Chevalier no less!) and serves as “a short epilogue of one heartbreaking history of love and the prologue of the travel told in ‘The Darjeeling Limited.”

Hotel Chevalier will screen in the upcoming Venice Film Festival.

Wes Anderson‘s “The Darjeeling Limited,” will open the 45th New York Film Festival, the Film Society of Lincoln Center announced Wednesday evening. Joel and Ethan Coen‘s Cannes ’07 competition feature “No Country for Old Men,” meanwhile, will be the festival’s Centerpiece screening, while Palme d’Or winner “4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days” by Romanian director Cristian Mungiu and Lee Chang-dong‘s Korean feature “Secret Sunshine,” starring Cannes best actress-winner, Jeon Do-yeon are also joining the lineup at this year’s NYFF, taking place September 28 – October 14.

Starring Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman, “The Darjeeling Limited” is described as “an emotional comedy about three brothers re-forging family bonds on a train ride across the vibrant and sensual landscape of India.” Anjelica Huston is also featured in the Fox Searchlight release, co-written by Anderson, Roman Coppola and Schwartzman.
