Oscar Winning filmmaker Danny Boyle has been appointed as the Artistic Director for the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony.
Boyle, who won great acclaim for his production of Slumdog Millionaire, will also direct the Closing Ceremony as well as the Paralympic Ceremonies.
Boyle will work alongside Executive Producer Stephen Daldry as well as Mark Fisher, Hamish Hamilton and Catherine Ugwu.
Sebastian Coe, LOCOG Chair, said: ‘These Games are bringing together world-class British talent.
“Each one of these individuals would hold their own on the worldwide stage and they are joining names like children’s author Michael Morpurgo who has created the story behind our highly successful mascots. We are delighted with the team we have brought together to deliver our Ceremonies in 2012.”
