The 44-year-old filmmaker helmed the eighth instalment of the hit sci-fi franchise, 'The Last Jedi', and although the film has had a mixed response from fans and critics alike, the movie won the coveted Best Picture award at the Rakuten TV Empire Awards 2018 on Sunday (18.03.18). But Johnson - who said it felt "amazing" to win because it was voted for by the public - said the fans have been "wonderful and lovely".
