Just about every prolific filmmaker has an actor that he or she regularly casts for their films. Some directors even have a couple of go-to actors. Many of Martin Scorsese's classics feature Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel or Leonardo Dicaprio. Woody Allen is famed for list of muses, which includes Louise Lasser, Diane Keaton, Mia Farrow and Scarlett Johansson. There's no such thing as a Garry Marshall movie that doesn't feature Hector Elizondo, no matter how small the role may be. Current master Paul Thomas Anderson has gone on the record stating that Philip Seymour Hoffman and John C. Reilly are the two best American actors. Lucky for him, they both have appeared in several of his films. Paul Thomas is not the only current Anderson to employ several other actors on a regular basis; Wes Anderson has a reputation for doing the same as well. Here are some of the actors that regularly appear in the idiosyncratic works of the great Wes.

Jason Schwartzman
Even though Schwartzman's career could have launched strictly through nepotism (Schwartzman in a member of the Coppola clan), it was Wes Anderson who gave him his break with the film "Rushmore." Since that film, Schwartzman has appeared in three other Anderson feature films. He even co-wrote "The Darjeeling Limited" with the director and cousin Roman Coppola. Schwartzman is also the star of "Hotel Chevalier," a little known short film gem courtesy of Anderson, which was filmed to go along with "Darjeeling."

Owen Wilson
Wilson was a star of "The Darjeeling Limited" just like Schwartzman, but was not a co-writer. That's okay, because Wilson wrote Anderson's first three films along with the director, and even shared Anderson's sole Oscar nomination for the screenplay of "The Royal Tenenbaums." Although he hasn't written any of the films since that one, he has been featured in all of them, in roles large and small, save "Moonrise Kingdom."

Anjelica Huston
Huston has been in more Wes Anderson films than any other actress. In two of those films, "The Darjeeling Limited" and "The Royal Tenenbaums," she plays the mother of three siblings. Granted, her role in "Tenenbaums" is much larger. Although Anderson is not known for casting a large amount of women in his films, many critics have gone as far as to say that the roles Anderson creates for Huston are among the most revolutionary for women my moden Hollywood standards, given the independence and femininity the characters display. Just the fact that he's writing complex roles for women on the upper end of the age spectrum sets him apart.

Bill Murray
Last but not least, the great "Saturday Night Live" vet has been a cast member of every single Wes Anderson movie except for the first one, "Bottle Rocket." The mark that he leaves on every single one of these films is indelible as well (yes, even the blink and you miss him appearance in "Darjeeling"). Bill Murray
has only been the central star of one of Anderson's features, "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou," but few would argue that his best performance in a Wes Anderson film came in his eccentric turn as a millionaire fighting for the affections of a teacher in "Rushmore." Many consider his lack of an Oscar nomination for that performance to be one of the most glaring Academy snubs in recent memory.
