Director: Julian Farino
Production: Netflix Original
A Netflix Original spy action comedy directed by Julian Farino, starring Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry. I was the Senior USA Art Director for Production Designer Morgan Kennedy. The film was made across the UK, USA, and Croatia, using a mix of location and stage builds.
I worked on this film right after completing ‘The Pod Generation’, it was a good gear shift, from a 8 million dollar movie to 180 million dollar budget! Shot during COVID, the production spanned multiple large-scale sets, from gritty construction sites to high-tech intelligence hubs. Morgan and I have worked together for 25 years or so, while little and large in stature, we both love film design and seem able to put up with each other ; ) From my perspective his design for the Union is a great mix of cinematic languages, blending minimalism & realism in a unified colour scheme.
