Soundtracking with Edith Bowman

Welcome James Gunn, writer and director of the latest iteration of Superman. Starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnehan, Nicholas Hoult and James's dog, it sees billionaire Lex Luther attempt to undermine our hero by turning public opinion against him. James is on cracking form, and is particularly passionate about his music, even writing a song for the movie.

We're back with the second of our Jurassic Park Rebirth specials to kick off your week. We released Edith's chat with director Gareth Edwards a little earlier. Now it's the turn of his composer Alexandre Desplat, who of course had to contend with the legacy of all the wonderful music associated with the franchise, not least John Williams's iconic theme.

It's another two show week here on Soundtracking, as first director Gareth Edwards and then composer Alexandre Desplat join us to discuss their work on Jurassic World: Rebirth. In this first of the interviews, Gareth gives us the inside line on how he got the gig, cast members peeing in mangrove swamps, and Alexandre's last ditch efforts to land the choral section of the iconic Jurassic Park theme.

King Of The Drums, Antonio Sanchez, joins us to discuss his work on Apple TV+ hit, The Studio, and his seminal, groundbreaking score for Birdman. He is an absolute delight, and fascinating in his exploration of his process.

In the second interview marking the release of 28 Years Later, G & Kayus from Young Fathers join Edith to discuss the score for the film (miss you Alloyssious). We've already heard from director Danny Boyle, so be sure to check that interview out if you haven't already. Danny is, as ever, in cracking form.
