2018: April
30: new project: UNDERWATER Marco Beltrami has
recently started working on upcoming thriller UNDERWATER starring
Kristen Stewart, T.J. Miller, Jessica Henwick and Vincent Cassell.
The movie, directed by William Eubank (The Signal), resolves around
a crew of underwater researchers who must scramble to safety after
an earthquake devastates their subterranean laboratory. 20th Century
Fox will released the movie later in 2018. Here is a quote about the
project from recent FSMO interview: "The next thing is a movie for Fox called
Underwater, which is a scary movie. Returning to my roots here,
I guess. It’s a really interesting project in many ways. It has a
young director [William Eubank] and he’s an interesting guy. He
takes electronic music classes himself, so he knows a little bit
about it and is really into utilizing some of the stuff in the
score. I think it’s going to be really fun working with him. We’re
just starting on it. I’m doing it as a co-score with someone that I
work with, Brandon Roberts, so we’re just starting to put some ideas
together. We had some sessions with some singers, creating these
sharper tones. I think it’s going to be cool."

2018: February 22: Marco Beltrami provides
new score for FORTNITE Marco Beltrami and Pinar Toprak
co-composed new original score for videogame FORTNITE.
Beltrami said seeing Fortnite and its gameplay was crucial
when creating the new score. "When I first heard about the
game, I had an image in my head and you respond musically to
that image. But, until you actually see it and see how it
works, it really changes," he said. "Because it sounds like it
could be kind of dark. You know, the monsters are coming and you have to defend and shoot them.
But it has more of a family-type of feel to it. I think the
fact
that you’re not just defending yourself, but also
trying to save other people ... all of these things are really
important elements musically, because music is the emotional
undercurrent of the story. And the player has to feel that." Check
out Rolling Stones article
for details and listen to the brief clip below.
2018: February 10: new interview with Sound
of the Movies New
