Star Wars 8 Updates: Musical Virtuoso John Williams Now Working On The Film Score

John Williams, a man who has a deep love for music and has been critically-acclaimed for some of his works is now scoring the music for Star Wars 8. The musical virtuoso has been creating mesmerizing and unforgettable tracks for the saga throughout the years.

While some of the crew members already came and went, Williams remained a mainstay in all seven installments. And now, he must be ready to return to the studio once again for creating another remarkable score for The Last Jedi.

Filmmaker Robert Meyer Burnett spilled the beans to all his social media followers. "LAST JEDI scoring update. Last Thursday was John Williams' 85th Birthday. He's conducting. Rian Johnson wants to use the score for editing," Burnett wrote on his Twitter account.


While others are surprised about the latest Star Wars 8 news, some are also anticipating that the outcome would surpass the success of The Force Awakens' score "Rey's Theme" and "The Jedi Steps."

According to Screen Rant, Williams is expecting to finish the score in the second quarter of 2017; which means that the fans might hear the material very soon. On the other hand, the loyal fans must be patiently waiting for the official teaser to come out.

However, rumor has it that the Star Wars 8 teaser will not be out until the Star Wars Celebration kicks off in Orlando. Furthermore, the expecting moviegoers might still need to guess the on-point plot when it arrives in theaters this December.

Some of the most talked about speculations are about Rey's origin, which has been the center of debate among different threads and forums. All the theories make sense, but only the movie could tell the actual story, isn't it?

On the contrary, there might be a lot of hints sitting subtly on Episode VII. But let's keep the excitement flowing by patiently waiting for official Star Wars 8 updates from the production real soon.
