Below-the-line categories at the Oscars just don’t get the attention they deserve. The artistry on display helps to bring to life a movie. Visual effects are such a key part of the storytelling of “A New Hope.” Costume design is vital to the storytelling of “Phantom Thread.” And production design is so key in “Parasite,” “Avatar,” and “The Lord of the Rings” in so many different ways.
With that in mind, let’s take a look a closer look at some of the below-the-line categories, starting here with Best Production Design. We’re going to look at the last 10 winners in this category to work out if there is a pattern in the way the academy awards certain winners. They love biopics in the acting categories, for example, so what are they partial to in Production Design? Take a look at the below chart.

The 2022 Cannes lineup is coming into focus.
George Miller’s latest film, “Three Thousand Years of Longing,” is officially set to premiere at the 75th Cannes Film Festival, which will run May 17–28. The full Cannes selection will be revealed in mid-April, but Variety has reported that “Three Thousand Years of Longing” is set to join “Top Gun: Maverick” and Baz Luhrmann’s “Elvis” among the festival premieres so far.
Tilda Swinton stars as a scholar who encounters a Djinn (Idris Elba), who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. Their conversation, unfolding in a hotel room in Istanbul, leads to consequences neither expected.
Miller last premiered a film at Cannes with the release of “Fury Road,” which played the festival out of competition in 2015. The following year, Miller served as president of the Cannes jury.

Right before the pandemic hit, director George Miller was just about to begin production on his Mad Max: Fury Road follow-up, a new original film titled Three Thousand Years Of Longing. Set to star Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton, plans were of course halted and the only news we’ve gotten since is that Miller was casting his Mad Max prequel centered on Furiosa, leading us to believe the other project may have died. Thankfully, that is not the case.
Deadline reports not only is the epic fantasy-romance in production in Australia, they’ve already completed three weeks of a two-month shoot. After a Christmas break, production will wrap up with an eye for a September 2021 post-production completion. While details have been sparse when it comes to the $60 million production, it’s said to be a love story involving a genie.
“One thing I can tell you; it’s not [another Fury Road],” Miller said last year.

George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” follow-up “Thousand Years of Longing” is finally in production in Australia, well over two years after the project was first announced. Deadline confirms Miller is 20 days into the movie’s 62-day film shoot. Cast and crew will break for the holidays later this month and reconvene in early 2021 to finish production by spring. Miller is reportedly aiming to have the film finished by September 2021. As previously reported, MGM is on board as the film’s U.S. distributor and the cast is led by Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba.
While plot details for “Thousand Years of Longing” remain under wraps, “Fury Road” fans will be excited to learn that Miller has gotten nearly all of the Oscar-winning “Mad Max” craft team back together for his new movie. Oscar-winning cinematographer John Seale has come out of retirement to serve as Dp on “Thousand Years of Longing,...

Exclusive: More than two years after it was announced and after a couple of delays, George Miller’s anticipated fantasy-romance-drama Three Thousand Years Of Longing is now underway in Australia, we can reveal.
The Sydney-based production, which is observing numerous on-set Covid safety protocols, is in fact 20 days into its 62-day shoot. The team will break up over Christmas and reconvene early next year before wrapping in the early spring for a planned September 2021 delivery.
Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba are starring in Miller’s latest, whose plot details are being kept under wraps. The visionary filmmaker previously described the project to us as an “anti-Mad Max” with plenty of interiors and dialogue but also punctuated with action scenes.
The estimated $60M budget is an indication that this is far from your average two-hander, however. Producer Doug Mitchell, Miller’s long-time producing partner, described the Sydney sets to us today...
