Speaking from the Venice Film Festival, director Wes Anderson provided a positive update to reporters on his friend and frequent collaborator Owen Wilson. "I can tell you he has been doing very well, he has been making us laugh," Anderson told reporters. Anderson noted that Wilson has "obviously been through a lot" and will eventually reveal what really happened when he reportedly attempted suicide.
Wilson, 38, who was taken by ambulance to the hospital last week following a call to 911 by his brother, Luke Wilson, helped write and co-stars in Anderson's latest movie, The Darjeeling Limited, which is competing for the Venice Film Festival's top award. In "Darjeeling," Wilson plays a distraught man — bandaged throughout the film — who other characters imply has attempted suicide. Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, Anjelica Huston and Bill Murray also star.
