Um, I'm curious, uh, what from that experience have you continued to, you know, kind of carry with you? And, you know, did any of that inform, you know, your journey on this film?
41:46
Yeah, absolutely.
41:47
I mean, I've been very fortunate to be working and designing this universe for over 30 years.
41:53
And I have to say, I mean, the process hasn't changed much at all because, you know, it all started with George, and he was very specific in sort of making sure that the art always starts with the writing.
42:03
And that's been the process, you know, with Jon Favreau and all of our other filmmakers as well.
42:07
And that's the great thing about Star Wars is that, you know, it is a singular vision from the director, and you really have to kind of see it through all the different phases.
42:15
And so for me, it's, you know, the process has been consistent, even though there's new filmmakers.
