Joe Lujan is an American film producer, screenwriter, and film director. He is widely known for directing the sci-fi film The Immortal Wars (2017). Born and raised in El Paso, Texas, Lujan and his 3 siblings were raised by his parents Joe and Norma Lujan. The film was not Lujan’s first career goal. His fascination with animals led him to pursue a career as a veterinarian, but with the inspiration of horror films such as Scream (1996), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) and Wrong Turn (2003), his interests began to shift. In 2002, his older sister took him and his younger brother out of school to watch a film they had all been waiting for. At the end of the film, as the roll credits began, Lujan made his decision “That’s what I’m going to do”. The title of the film was Resident Evil (2002). He then grew up performing in his own short films along with his siblings and relatives. He graduated from Montwood High School in 2007. Lujan landed a set of jobs producing and directing commercials for local businesses.
