“Our set was enormous – it was a desert. But it was a closed desert that was there just for this little group of people and a camera in the middle of it somewhere to play these imaginary scenes, so I don’t want to say it was good for the movie but we used it in a way that wasn’t bad,” he said.
Schwartzman stars as Augie Steenbeck, a war photographer grieving the death of his wife, whose car breaks down in the town with his three young daughters and son in tow. His love interest is famous actor Midge Campbell, played by Johansson, who is in town to attend the convention with her daughter. Johansson, who had only previously worked with Anderson on his animated film “Isle of Dogs,” said the way “Asteroid City” was filmed, with a real set, felt similar to doing theatre.“Because you have the whole tangible space, it’s not the familiar process of being on a sound stage and going back to your trailer and all this down time – all this stuff that eats up momentum,” said Johansson, who has previously worked on Marvel superhero films heavy on CGI, such as Black Widow.
