It was once thought that director J.J. Abrams would have his own longtime scoring partner Michael Giacchino take on the job but those thoughts quickly vanished. It’s hard to think of anyone else taking the spot that Williams has held for so long. The composers scores are iconic, and the ones that we get stuck in our heads from childhood onto adulthood. Glad to hear that he’s back on board!
Oh, and here’s this:
Just announced: #StarWarsCelebration is coming to Anaheim, CA on April 16-19, 2015!
