We’ve all probably been in an elevator a time or two and wondered what would happen if it got stuck. Academy Award-winning director Wes Anderson and actor Luke Wilson experienced the scary scenario on July 6, 2026. According to video obtained by TMZ, the pair got stuck in an elevator at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. In a video shared on Instagram by production assistant Carolynn Dunn, we see Wes Anderson, Luke Wilson, James L. Brooks, and at least three others being freed from the elevator by the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Evidently, the elevator was overloaded. LAFD confirmed to TMZ that the elevator was stuck for less than an hour. Wes, Luke, James, and the others were at the Academy Museum for the 30th anniversary screening of Wes Anderson’s debut feature, Bottle Rocket, which also starred Luke and his brother, Owen Wilson. Multiple people commented on the video and think Wes Anderson just might have found the plot for his next hit movie. “No doubt the character asking if they know what was wrong with it would be played by Owen Wilson,” someone joked. “Guarantee you this gave Wes an idea for his next project,” another person wrote. “That might be in a movie,” a follower added. This person noticed one of the firefighters and thinks he might have just gotten his big break in Hollywood and he might not have even realized it. “That handsome fireman just got discovered by top industry powerhouses. Bet we’ll be seeing him in the movies soon,” they wrote. This story’s featured image can be found here
