The Official Star Wars Site has announced that Kathleen Kennedy,
the president of Lucasfilm and producer of Star Wars: Episode VII, will make her
first Star Wars Celebration appearance in Essen this July. Expect to see Kennedy
on the Celebration stage, talking with celebrity host Warwick Davis about her
amazing career in the movie industry and her recent move to Lucasfilm. This will
be a landmark experience for fans at Star Wars Celebration Europe.
“When I joined Lucasfilm, I immediately saw the true passion shared by Star
Wars fans around the world. I’m thrilled to attend my first Star Wars
Celebration and see in person that energy that makes the Star Wars experience so
special.”
Nominated for eight Academy Awards, Kennedy is one of the most
successful and respected producers and executives in the film industry today.
She joined Lucasfilm in 2012, personally selected by George Lucas to lead the
company.
Kennedy has produced or executive produced over 60 films, which
have collectively garnered 120 Academy Award nominations and 25 wins. Among her
credits are four of the highest-grossing films in motion picture history:
Jurassic Park, E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the
Crystal Skull, and The Sixth Sense, as well as such blockbuster entertainment as
the Back to the Future trilogy, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Gremlins, The Goonies,
Poltergeist, War of the Worlds, Twister, and A.I. Artificial
Intelligence.
Kennedy has produced the films of such directors as Steven
Spielberg, David Fincher, Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Robert Zemeckis, M.
Night Shyamalan, Frank Oz, Peter Bogdanovich, and Richard Donner.
Prior
to joining Lucasfilm, Kennedy headed The Kennedy/Marshall Company, which she
founded in 1992 with director/producer Frank Marshall, and in 1982 she
co-founded the phenomenally successful Amblin Entertainment with Marshall and
Steven Spielberg.
