Jay 37,404 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 For his part, Spielberg, 77, is also staying busy. He will likely make his next project a UFO film based on his own original idea. David Koepp is writing the screenplay, sources say. https://variety.com/2024/film/news/martin-scorsese-frank-sinatra-biopic-dicaprio-jennifer-lawrence-1235973769/ Raiders of the SoundtrArk and Brando 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,331 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 This would be his, what, 5th score for a movie with aliens? He's got a great track record so far on the subject! Really just depends what angle Spielberg's going for. Could this be his previously abandoned Night Skies, which was based on the Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter?

Schilkeman 965 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I'd much rather he "remade" his own films instead of Bullitt, or whatever other rumors about his next project, so a new alien movie sounds great. And yeah, I do think John will score it, if he's capable of doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,699 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 If he's able, I think he will. But if he was only able to complete (sort of) a score for DoD due to an extended PP period and help from Ross, it does seem like it comes down to health and general ability to do it. Maybe SS would turn to Tom Newman again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SyncMan 314 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Furthermore, just because Spielberg 'will make' this UFO movie, that doesn't necessarily mean that he'll be directing it. It could be that his production company, Amblin, is putting up the money to have it made and that he'll hire a director to it. If that is the case, then that director will be hiring the composer of his choice, not necessarily JW. On the other hand, I'm not overlooking the idea that the chosen director may bring in JW to do the music, but not puttng my hopes on that, at this earlier stage.

He's done enough, he needs to enjoy the time he has left. He said recently he's always asking Steven what he's doing next, and he recently said he'd be open to more films if his schedule and interest allows. And he'll keep writing music while he's able to - that is how he enjoys life. I think the only significant thing he said regarding movies was that he would be reluctant to take on a project as big as a Star Wars score - something that requires about 6 months plus of work to a schedule and millions of notes. But after he said that, he opted to tackle the entire Indy 5 score after initially only signing up to write a few themes. I personally don't feel there's any big change in his working life, except a little less conducting of entire concerts and more international travel for concerts than during most of his 80s. Those international trips seem to be Williams enjoying life - if not more then at least a little differently from his daily routine.
