The London Film Festival will close Nov 1 with the UK premiere of Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Limited. The director will be in London to also give an interview as part of the festival's TCM Screen Talks.

Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman star as three American brothers who try to find themselves and bond with each other during a train trip across India.

Anderson wrote the project with Roman Coppola and Schwartzman.

Producers are Anderson, Scott Rudin, Roman Coppola and Lydia Dean Pilcher.

The film will open the New York Film Festival and will compete in Venice.

LFF artistic director Sandra Hebron said: 'Wes Anderson and his knockout cast are at their sparkling best in The Darjeeling Limited, and we're very excited to be closing our Festival with this original and hugely enjoyable film from one of our favourite auteurs.'

Fox will release the film in the UK on Nov 23.

As previously reported, LFF will open with David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises.
