Human Rights Clip from Wes Anderson's The Phoenician Scheme

In this newly released scene from Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme, billionaire Zsa-Zsa Korda (Benicio del Toro) delivers a sardonic monologue on citizenship and identity, declaring, “I don’t need my human rights.” Set against Anderson’s signature symmetrical visuals and dry wit, the clip offers a glimpse into the film’s exploration of global privilege and personal detachment. The film, co-written with Roman Coppola, follows Korda and his daughter Liesel (Mia Threapleton), a nun and his sole heir, as they navigate a world of espionage, betrayal, and moral ambiguity. The Phoenician Scheme is slated for a limited U.S. release on May 30, 2025, expanding nationwide on June 6.

The Phoenician Scheme Cast:

Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Riz Ahmed, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Rupert Friend, Hope Davis, Imad Mardnli and Benedict Cumberbatch

The Phoenician Scheme will hit theaters May 30, 2025!
