Pablo Hidalgo (Lucasfilm) – Part 1
Happy “Star Wars” Day! To celebrate May the 4th, we’re kicking off the Energis Podcast with a very special guest—Pablo Hidalgo, loremaster of a galaxy far, far away.
As the Director of Franchise and Story at Lucasfilm, Pablo has spent over two decades shaping and preserving the “Star Wars” galaxy. From advising top filmmakers on story accuracy to co-authoring essential “Star Wars” books, his fingerprints are on nearly every corner of the franchise.
In Part 1 of this exclusive two-part episode, Pablo shares how he went from passionate fan in Winnipeg to walking the halls of Skywalker Ranch. We dive into his early days, the wild story of his Lucasfilm job interview, and what it really means to be the “canon keeper” for one of the most beloved stories of all time.
So whether you’re a lifelong fan or just love hearing how people turn passion into purpose—this one’s for you.
Hit play, and May the Force Be With You.
