We had the amazing opportunity to chat with Donald Mowat, Makeup Department Head on Presumed Innocent, and we're thrilled to be able to share that conversation with you today! You'll know his work from so many of your favorite films, such as Dune, Skyfall, Blade Runner 2049, and many more, going all the way back to one of his first jobs on the beloved 1985 TV miniseries, Anne of Green Gables! We spoke with Donald at length about his incredibly impressive career and the industry at large. If you’re missing Presumed Innocent as much as we are, we promise this will fill the void a lot - he’s a legend in the world of entertainment makeup and just an absolutely delightful human being.
This episode will include spoilers for new viewers as we discuss the show through the series finale - Season 1, Episode 8. And since you enjoy Donald's work so much, be sure to check out his next project coming soon, Tron: Ares. Check out his IMDb page for more of his work - we promise you’ll be blown away.
