Leslie Pope was an American set decorator.
She moved to New York in 1979 to begin her career in the film industry and later moved to Venice in 1997. She originally wanted to go into the medical field as a researcher, going so far as to get a Bachelor of Science in biology before realizing that she didn't have the stomach for animal dissection. Taking some advice from her brother (Matrix cinematographer Bill Pope) who had just graduated from film school, she decided to pursue a career in entertainment. Her tenure as a film set decorator began in the 1980s with projects, like Martin Scorsese's After Hours and Alan Parker's Angel Heart. In her 40-year career, she worked on more than 50 films as a set decorator. Pope received an Academy Award nomination for Seabiscuit in 2003 for best art direction along with Jeannine Oppewall. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King would go on to win the award. The Art Directors Guild awarded her the excellence in production design award for Catch Me If You Can in 2002. She was nominated for the award in 2012 for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained. Her other design credits included Carlito's Way, Matewan, Ironweed, and The Prince of Tides.
For Disney, she worked as a set decorator for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Ant-Man, Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, Crossover Dreams, Bad Company, and Betsy's Wedding.
