Celebration: The town that Disney built Celebration was intended to be a carefully-planned haven for the wholesome family values for which Disney likes to be known. In many ways a throwback to simpler times, it was designed to have a vibrant downtown core which encouraged walking rather than driving, and no mega-malls on the outskirts. While Disney controlled all aspects of construction they were careful not to make the town part of their brand. This means that you won’t see Mickey Mouse ears anywhere. However a number of residential ‘villages’ surround the downtown area featuring public buildings with somewhat whimsical designs created by prominent architects. Philip Johnson’s Town Hall is perhaps the most unusual – crowded pillars being a very postmodern take on the imposing columns often used in such buildings. The Post Office designed by Michael Graves has a toy-like quality to it. The Bank of America building has a tower with an exterior staircase, while the Sun Trust bank has the air of a 1950s diner.

Suivez le geek Comment s’est déroulée la naissance du projet Les Sentinelles ? Julien Mokrani: Delcourt m’a envoyé la BD pendant que je finissais le court sur Welcome to Hoxford qu’ils éditent aussi en France. Dès les premières pages, ça a été immédiat : c’est une histoire qui est née pour être vue et vécue sur grand écran. Qui va produire le script et avec quel degré de fidélité à l’original ? Pour l’instant, j’ai travaillé avec mes producteurs et Xavier Dorison pour tracer les grandes lignes de cette adaptation. Quid de la direction artistique, notamment par rapport au côté « image d’Epinal » sur lequel joue parfois la BD ? La première question que je me pose quand je veux adapter une BD, c’est : comment reproduire le style graphique à l’écran ? Un premier long-métrage sur un super-héros français, dans une période peu traitée au ciné. Pour le côté premier film, ça n’effraie pas mes producteurs et j’ai fait mes deux courts-métrages précisément pour me prouver à moi-même que j’en étais capable.
