John Williams confirms first non-Spielberg score in 8 years

john williams


John Williams is set to compose his first score not associated with Steven Spielberg since 2005's Memoirs of a Geisha (directed by Rob Marshall).  Obviously another non Spielberg movie has recently been announced will be composed by John Williams, a small movie called Star Wars VII.

Classic FM reported the story:

The Book Thief tells the story of a young girl in Nazi Germany who steals books to escape from the world around her, while her family shelters a Jewish refugee in their home. It stars Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson as the girl's parents, while unknown French-Canadian actress Sophie Nélisse will play the young girl.

According to a post on Williams' publisher's Facebook page, the soundtrack is at the proofing stage. The film is due for release in November 2013, meaning fans will be able to enjoy a new John Williams score before the end of the year, and in time for Academy Award consideration.

I remember watching this scene back in the early eighties and my ten year old mind thought he definitely had a snack while filming.  I recall talking about 'flygate' in my school playground at the time and the general consensus with my friends was that Freeman definitely had a sneaky snack. Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com  and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th

The Pinewood Atlanta complex will be built on 288 acres of land south of Atlanta, Georgia, as a joint venture with a US investment company. Georgia has been among the US states drawing film-making away from Hollywood with tax incentives in recent years. The deal is the latest sign of expansion at Pinewood, the home of the James Bond franchise.
