It appears that Star Wars: Andor has “scored” its music composer! Nicholas Britell has been tapped to write the music for the upcoming Disney Plus streamer. Britell’s credits include Succession, Moonlight, If Beale Street Could Talk, Don’t Look Up, Cruella, Vice, The Big Short and The Underground Railroad.
To get a taste of what Britell is all about, check out the embedded links below for some of his music. The I’m Cruella track has an Andor type feel to it, so I can see why this is a major get for Lucasfilm.
