Duncan Zowie Haywood Jones (born 30 May 1971)〔 is an English film director, film producer, and screenwriter. He is best known for directing the award-winning science fiction films ''Moon'' (2009) and ''Source Code'' (2011). He is also the director of the upcoming 2016 film adaptation of ''Warcraft''. ==Early life== Jones is the only child from the marriage of David Bowie and his first wife, Angela, an American former model. He was born in Bromley, London.〔 His birth prompted Bowie to write the song "Kooks" for his 1971 album ''Hunky Dory''. Jones is the half-brother of Alexandria "Lexi" Jones (born 2000), from his father's second marriage to the fashion model Iman, and Jones is the half-brother of Stacia Larranna Celeste Lipka (born 1980), from his mother's relationship with musician Drew Blood (real name Andrew Lipka). He also has a stepsister, Zulekha Haywood (born 1978), who is the daughter of Iman and former NBA basketball player Spencer Haywood, Iman's second husband. Jones spent time growing up in Berlin, London, and Vevey, where he attended the first and second grade at the Commonwealth American School in Lausanne. When the Bowies divorced in February 1980, David Bowie was granted custody of nine-year-old Jones (who was then known as "Zowie"), and he visited his mother on his school vacations. At age 14, he enrolled in the Scottish boarding school Gordonstoun. Around the age of 12, Zowie decided that he preferred to be called "Joey", and used this nickname for some time until shortening it to "Joe" in his later teen years. The press reported that he went by "Joe" in 1992 when attending his father's wedding to Iman, at which he was the best man.〔Aris, Brian. ("The wedding of David Bowie and Iman" ). Hello!, 13 June 1992.〕 Whilst growing up, Jones dreamed of becoming a professional wrestler, and his father frequently praises what he called Jones' "natural strength." 〔Tan, Mandy. ().〕 According to the ''New York Times'', he reverted to his birth name around the age of 18. By 1995, Jones graduated with a bachelor's degree in philosophy from The College of Wooster. He then pursued a PhD degree at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, but left before completion to attend London Film School, where he then graduated as a director. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Duncan Jones」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
