Biography
Mike Stallion (born 13 October 1962) is a senior art director. He was born in Horsham, Sussex, England. Over a career covering more than three decades, he has contributed his design expertise to a wide range of films, from early work in the late 1990s such as Elizabeth (1998) as a draughtsman and The Mummy (1999) as an assistant art director, progressing through beloved family features like Shanghai Knights (2003) as an assistant art director and Touch of Pink (2004) as an art director, culminating in blockbuster franchises including Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), Doctor Strange (2016), Beauty and the Beast (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Black Widow (2021), Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), How to Train Your Dragon (2025), Project Hail Mary (2026) and Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026).
Stallion first attracted significant attention for his work as art director on Alfonso Cuarón's Children of Men (2006), which earned him a nomination in the Fantasy Feature Film category at the 11th Art Directors Guild (ADG) Awards. That same decade saw him nominated yet again, this time for Quantum of Solace in the Honorary Contemporary Film category (2008) and Sherlock Holmes in the Period Film category (2009). In 2010, his work on Robin Hood was recognised with a nomination for the ADG's Excellence in Production Design in the Period Film category.
Stallion's talent reached a new level of acclaim in 2015 when he won the ADG Excellence in Production Design Award for Fantasy Film for his contribution to Avengers: Age of Ultron. He continued to garner recognition for his genre-defining visual work, earning nominations again for Fantasy Film in 2017, 2018, and 2020, with another win in 2020, consolidating his status as a decorated designer within the industry.
