Interview Anthony Willis

As protege of Oscar-nominated composer John Powell, Anthony has contributed additional music to many of Hollywood’s major franchises including: How to Train your Dragon, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Jason Bourne and Rio. The BAFTA-nominated composer Anthony Willis became quickly one of the most highly sought after new voices in Hollywood. Anthony composed the score to Oscar-winning writer/director Emerald Fennell’s drama thriller Promising Young Woman. He also worked on the horror hit M3gan. Recently he joined forces again with director Emerald Fennell for the highly acclaimed film Saltburn. I've had the opportunity to talk to Anthony Willis during the World Soundtrack Awards in Ghent. He talked about his great score for Saltburn and some other work. He was nominated for 3 World Soundtrack Awards this year with his music for Saltburn. Public Choice Award, Discovery of the Year Award and Composer of the Year Award. Photo credit: Jeroen Willems - Film Fest Ghent 2024
