The visionary Paul Inglis has been selected as the art director for the upcoming finale in the Star Wars Skywalker saga, the as-of-yet unnamed Episode 9. He was the art director for Blade Runner 2049, Skyfall, Game of Thrones, and Prometheus – all gorgeous works in their own right. As art director, Inglis is responsible for setting the creative theme of the movie, a visual framework and asthetic that the rest of the movie (cinematography, costume, set design, directing) will follow to create a cohesive and moving story.
Based on his incredible portfolio, I can’t think of a better send-up for the Star Wars finale. JJ Abrams will be directing and other details on the film are scarce at this moment – but this will be one of the most highly anticipated movies of all time.
