Popular Post crumbs 14,306 Posted April 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 9, 2021 My theory about why the Indy box was discussed but didn't progress suddenly making more and more sense... I'm just glad we won't have a repeat of the TLJ situation where we didn't have confirmation until right before Williams saw the film. It shows how highly JW is rated by Disney/Lucasfilm he's up there with Harrison Ford on their announcement of the key 3. I cannot believe he'll be writing new Indy music in around six months time... what a time to be alive! crlbrg, Chewy, Tiburon and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Edmilson 7,431 Posted April 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 9, 2021 Yeah, I think he'll also score both Indy 5 and Little Spielberg. The latter probably won't demand a huge score, which means Williams can write a 40-50 minutes score that'll do just fine. If all goes according to plan, he'll write Indy 5 later in 2021 and record it in Jan or Feb of next year. After that, he can dedicate himself to Spielberg's movie.

Mangold seems a much more assured, confident director. Plus Indy films are traditionally less reliant on VFX than Star Wars, so realistically he'll be scoring a more locked edit than the ever-changing Abrams films. toothless, crlbrg and Will 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a nice way to look at it. But don't forget that it's very much the other way around, i.e. a younger generation of filmmakers being involved in established franchises where JW is the de facto musical authority you cannot push away, as he's still very much eager to contribute.
