Juliana’s latest project “Hit Man” (directed by Richard Linklater), follows Glen Powell as Gary Johnson, a part-time philosophy and psychology professor who moonlights as a mysterious hit man for hire. He dresses as different characters in order to entice the people trying to hire him, all while working for the police department. After premiering at the 2023 Venice Film Festival,“Hit Man” was sold to Netflix.
Juliana uses her lifelong passions for performance and storytelling to compliment her skills as a Costume Designer. On the film “The Iron Orchard,” she created period wardrobe from the 1930s through the 1960s around the main characters’ rags-to-riches journey that begins in the gritty oil fields of west Texas and carries them to upper crust society life in Fort Worth. In “Sister Aimee,” she re-created the glamorous 1920s world of infamous evangelist Sister Aimee Semple McPherson in Los Angeles who faked her own death and ran away to Mexico with her married lover. In Sony Pictures Classics’ “12 Mighty Orphans,” she designed period costumes for a cast who take us through the journey of a north Texas Depression-era orphanage that formed a football team which ultimately found itself playing at the highest level of Texas high school football in the 1930s and 1940s. And in the “The Blazing World” (Sundance 2021), Juliana explored both contemporary and fantastical costumes with her original designs.
Other costume film credits include “Green Book,” “One Night in Miami,” “Deepwater Horizon,” and “The Astronaut Wives Club.”
