Donald Mowat is one of the film industry’s most sought-after makeup artists. He has served as make-up department head and designer on The Fighter, 8 Mile, Sicario, Nightcrawler, Prisoners, Blade Runner 2049, and as personal make-up artist to Daniel Craig on Skyfall and Spectre.
This year, Mowat and his team are nominated for Oscars for their incredible work in Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE. It is his first Oscar nomination.
Mowat sat down recently with Cherry the Geek TV (and some other websites/journalists in a roundtable Zoom) to discuss the Oscar nomination, his career, his work on Dune, his relationship with Villeneuve, the upcoming Marvel show Moon Knight, and more.
