Editors - Craig Wood ACE and Dylan Tichenor ACE Editor Craig Wood ACE returns once again to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and this time he is joined by the formidable talents of Oscar®-nominated editor Dylan Tichenor ACE. Despite their extensive careers and wide variety of credits, ETERNALS marks the first time that Dylan and Craig have co-edited together. It's also the first film, possibly for any editor, where the director (Chloe Zhao) received an Oscar® nomination for Best Film Editing (NOMAD) while their current film was still in post production. CRAIG WOOD ACE While ETERNALS is Craig's fourth film with Marvel, following GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY (2014), GAURDIANS OF THE GALAXY - VOL.2 (2017) and ANT-MAN and THE WASP (2018), most of Craig's own "cinematic universe" has been with director Gore Verbinski. Together they made the films; MOUSEHUNT (1997), THE MEXICAN (2001), THE RING (2002), THE PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL (2003), THE PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST (2006), THE PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: AT WORLD'S END (2007), THE WEATHERMAN (2005), RANGO (2011), THE LONE RANGER (2013) and A CURE FOR WELLNESS (2016)...just to name a few. Craig even cut MALEFICENT: MISTRESS OF EVIL (2019) along with editor Laura Jennings, who appeared on THE ROUGH CUT when that film came out. DYLAN TICHENOR ACE In addition to his work on ETERNALS, Dylan has done a number of films with many acclaimed directors. Most notably with director Paul Thomas Anderson on films such as BOOGIE NIGHTS (1997), MAGNOLIA (1999), THERE WILL BE BOOD (2007) and PHANTOM THREAD (2017). And when he wasn't working with Paul Anderson, he was doing BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (2005) with Ang Lee, ZERO DARK THIRTY (2012) alongside editor Billy Goldenberg ACE for Kathryn Bigelow, UNBREAKABLE (2000) for M. Night Shamalan, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS (2001) for Wes Anderson and THE TOWN (2010) for Ben Affleck. Dylan received Oscar® nominations for his work on ZERO DARK THIRTY as well as THERE WILL BE BLOOD.
