Episode IX is going to be John Williams last Star Wars which will given them a fresh start for the new trilogies. I am very very curious (and we can have a little bet now) whether Dave Benioff and Dan Weiss will ask Ramin Djawadi to do it for them. It is the next logical career step for him and would be a fantastic opportunity.
I think that is a testament to how much he enjoys his work. If you look back over his life he has had the opportunity to work on iconic films with iconic directors and I doubt there is a single person in the world who hasn't heard of his work. I know plenty of people who don't know him by name but everyone has heard of the Harry Potter theme, E.T theme, Imperial March etc.
There are a couple of people I would love to meet in person and John Williams is one of them. If I won the euro millions I would pay whatever it takes to spend a day with him, talk to him and have a tour of his recording studio etc. The man is a legend.
Just popped into my local Sainsburys and saw this. I hope they (and other supermarkets) do more stuff like this going forward for the big films like Infinity War and Jurassic World. I am sure both of them will out-gross The Last Jedi.
