His name returned to the big screen with Asteroid City this year, and now he’s to receive another notch on the belt of his career. Acclaimed director Wes Anderson is set to be honored at the Venice International Film Festival this year, with the Cartier Glory to the Filmmaker Award.

According to Hollywood Reporter, Anderson will receive the award in Venice on September 1st, ahead of the premiere of his new 40-minute film, The Wonderful World Of Henry Sugar. The film is inspired by Roald Dahl’s classic book, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. It stars Ralph Fiennes, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Dev Patel, among others.

“Wes Anderson is one of the few directors whose unique and unmistakable style can be recognized with just one frame,” said Alberto Barbera, director of the Venice Film Festival, “His formal universe harks back to a childlike and visionary aesthetic, dominated by pastel colors and obsessive care in preparing strictly symmetrical sequences populated by misfit dreamers who are incurably romantic and cheerful…. The worlds the director creates are plausible and yet completely imaginary and fictitious, buttressed by surreal humor and a disconcerting taste for the vicissitudes of maladjusted families, absent fathers, and imperturbable mothers. Eccentric and highly idiomatic cinema that is always perfectly entertaining and enjoyable.”

The Cartier Glory to the Filmmaker Award is meant to commemorate those who make original contributions to the world of contemporary films.

This year’s Venice International Film Festival will run from August 30th to September 9th. Netflix will be releasing The Wonderful World Of Henry Sugar worldwide following it’s premiere.
