Luke Wilson Does a Kevin Costner
"You should have seen what they cut out," Luke Wilson told me at the premiere of "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou" last night. "I'm the Kevin Costner of the movie."
He was referring, of course, to Costner's completely excised part in "The Big Chill." The only difference is, Wilson was never in "The Life Aquatic" to begin with.
"It's the first Wes Anderson movie he hasn't been in with his brother," his uncle told me.
Luke's brother is Owen Wilson, who co-stars in "Aquatic" with Bill Murray, Anjelica Huston, Seymour Cassel, Willem Dafoe and Jeff Goldblum — all of whom were at the premiere and the underwater-themed party at Roseland.
Luke Wilson was busy at the time shooting a movie he directed with his other brother Andrew called "The Wendell Baker Story." Still, he couldn't help kidding everyone about his cut scenes from "Aquatic."
Other guests last night included Spike Lee, Lauren Bacall, famed New Yorker writer Lillian Ross, Huston's artist husband Robert Graham and Anderson's fashion-designer girlfriend Tara Subkoff.
"He wasn't in the movie," insisted Anderson, who sports long blond hair now and kept his overcoat on the whole time he was in Roseland.
Anderson has turned Bill Murray into his semi-annual franchise, having previously featured him in "Rushmore" and "The Royal Tenenbaums."
Murray, who got an Oscar nomination last year for "Lost in Translation" — not an Anderson movie — gained even more notoriety when he started heckling the Oscar ceremony from his seat.
"I thought we were in a commercial," he told me last night. "I was just having fun."
Would he like to be a presenter this time around?
He rolled his eyes, as if to say, "As if."
I say: Why not?
