John Williams, The Master, To Score Star Wars VII

Interview with John Williams:


Williams' music made the Star Wars films come alive.  Star Wars fans have something to rejoice about. John Williams, the world famous and extremely successful composer who worked on the first six Star Wars films, has agreed to work on the seventh installment in the Star Wars franchise.
Williams has worked on a lot of big budget movies that you’ve probably seen, includingJaws, Indiana Jones, and E.T.! He’s won a Grammy and an Oscar, and has been a majorStar Wars fan since he worked on the first movie. Abrams has wanted him to come back since the seventh movie was announced, and he’s publicly got his wish.
The seventh movie is set to come out in 2015, with the eighth and ninth installments following shortly thereafter. In case you didn’t know, J.J. Abrams will be directing the movies and Michael Arndt, the man who brought us Toy Story 3 and Little Miss Sunshine, is writing the script. Mark Hamill (Luke), Cassie Fisher (Leia) and Harrison Ford (Han) will be reprising their roles as older versions of their characters in the new film.
Hope I get excited, rather than depressed to see the "older" versions reprising their original roles; It's been almost 40 years, after all.  And aside from Ford, time hasn't been kind to the other two. Just sayin'.
And so it goes.
