Chris Teague shared what it was like seeing Neal Scanlan's creature designs in The Acolyte.

Star Wars: The Acolyte has now released four episodes on Disney+, and three of them saw cinematographer Chris Teague serving as the director of photography. ComicBook recently had the chance to chat with Teague and he spoke about what he did to prepare when joining the iconic franchise and what it was like working with the VFX team and filming lightsabers.

"I mean, probably a million things surprised me along the way," Teague shared."I'm trying to hone it down to one thing. It was never like, 'Oh wow, I can't believe they do this this way or that way.' It was more just like, 'Now I'm working with one of the best special effects teams in the world, and now I'm getting to see the kind of tools that they use and the kind of team that they have.

"He just does an amazing job, him and his team creating these creature heads and faces and there's just very little or no modification after the fact," Teague explained."I remember showing some of the footage to one of my friends and he's like, 'Well, that's a CG creature.' And I'm like, 'No, that's real. That was in the room.

Stay tuned for more from our interview with Chris Teague. The first four episodes of Star Wars: The Acolyte are now streaming on Disney+ with the fifth episode scheduled to drop on Tuesday, June 25th.
