Popular Post Muad'Dib 1,801 Posted September 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2021 Nice! Hopefully it's not another minimal score, like that last Doug Liman movie. Kasey Kockroach, Edmilson and Luka 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WampaRat 1,105 Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Are there any lame animated movies coming down the pipes? It’s probably Ice Age 8 or something. Even so, I will automatically listen to any new Powell release. He has my “brand loyalty” 😊 Kasey Kockroach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,392 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I wonder what is this new movie Powell is scoring. I hope it's a big blockbuster that will allow him to write another epic score. Luka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,392 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Black Adam would be amazing. Powell's first super-hero movie since The Last Stand in 2006. Luka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNHFan2000 2,944 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 http://filmmusicreporter.com/2022/01/06/john-powell-scoring-olivia-wildes-dont-worry-darling/ John Powell (How to Train Your Dragon, The Bourne Identity, Happy Feet, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Bolt, United 93, Face/Off, Chicken Run) has recently been scoring the upcoming psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling. The film is directed by Olivia Wilde (Booksmart) and stars Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Chris Pine, KiKi Layne, Gemma Chan, Chris Pine, Nick Kroll and Wilde herself. The movie revolves around a 1950s housewife living with her husband in a utopian experimental community who begins to worry that his glamorous company may be hiding disturbing secrets. Katie Silberman (Set It Up, Isn’t It Romantic) wrote the screenplay based on an earlier version by Shane & Carey Van Dyke (The Silence, Chernobyl Diaries). Wilde & Silberman are also producing the New Line Cinema production with Roy Lee (It, The Lego Batman Movie). Don’t Worry Darling is set to be released in theaters nationwide on September 23, 2022 by Warner Bros. Pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrayodiBA 517 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Well that’s interesting! Out of nowhere collaborator choice too, Olivia Wilde. I wonder what made her choose Powell (and vice versa) and where she got the referral from 😄 The premise of the movie itself is rather “been there done that” and the sample is really similar to James Newton Howard’s Raya But still excited nonetheless (Why it has to be September though 😭) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony 572 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Not the sort of film or score I'd expect JP to work on...but okay, bring it on. Not going to say no to new Powell music. Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,392 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I will admit, I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping he'd get an action blockbuster or animation that would allow him to write another epic, expansive orchestral score. Luka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping he'd get an action blockbuster or animation that would allow him to write another epic, expansive orchestral score. I'm the complete opposite. I'm sick and tired of those films and scores, and am very pleased to hear that he's doing a straight-up thriller film, at last. No blockbuster shenanigans, no big and pompous stuff -- a chance to do something lean and mean. But we'll see how it turns out in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started writing pretty much the same comment, and then I saw yours haha. I mean, it could be interesting nonetheless, but I really ain't a fan of Powell's more "serious-adult-like" scores such as the actions ones like Bourne or the romantic comedies like P.S. I Love You, etc. 😕 At least this one seems more intense and original with those voices and scary effects and synths. But I really can't wait for his return to fantastical or animated movie style Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony 572 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I mean...at least the clips from this new score (which JP is yet to confirm are actually from this) are interesting. Very different from anything he's done before. The kind of thing I was hoping for? No. Any good? Too little to tell. But different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 I think it's pretty clear the clip he posted is from this score. What else would it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrayodiBA 517 Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Another clip:https://www.instagram.com/tv/CYcI2C9BUy_/ I need to reserve my judgement for this, based on that new clip above. I assume Powell would tease only unimportant and minor parts, because the release is still long way to go. But if I have to be honest, leaving aside that JP is scoring this, the music in that clip sounds like a mainstream, dissonant, thriller sound that any composer could do. ------ But back to the first released clip with the chanting, First I thought it sounds like JNH's Raya, but how could I forget that it's more similar to Powell's very own Enyfs Nest motif from Solo. But outside from Powell, the clip also bears resemblance to Michael Abels's Us anthem (and if I remember correctly, in some interview/podcast, asked about favourite movie score at that time, Powell mentioned Abels. So I guess he's also inspired by that. But I could be wrong though) Jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 Yea I'm sure he's choosing clips that really tell us nothing about the overall score. The teases are fun though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drawgoon 100 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Well. At least he is no longer locked on animation. That's refreshing - even if this new gig is not the sort of picture that calls for music he tends to excel at. I am still curious why he hasn't yet picked up a gig at Pixar though.

Drawgoon 100 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 That is one weird looking film indeed. Even more so for the resume of a composer who's spent the bulk of his career scoring cartoons. It is good to hear the man's percussive-trademark in the mix nevertheless. It's been a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
