Hans Zimmer On His New Concert Film, Nolan And Villeneuve War Stories & Writing For Doris: The Deadline Interview
Deadline interviews Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer about his most famous collaborations and upcoming movie 'Hans Zimmer and Friends.'
It’s a sweet story that is also echoed in the 158-minute concert film, which sees Zimmer deliver live performances of some of his most revered compositions – Interstellar, Gladiator and his Oscar-winning scores for Dune and The Lion King – while also lifting the lid on his creative processes through intimate conversations with collaborators and friends such as Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, Billie Eilish, Jerry Bruckheimer, The Smiths’ Johnny Marr, Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Pharrell Williams and more. “These were all adventures, which were just great for me.” He cites Tony Scott as a “hard taskmaster but you couldn’t help but love him,” Marshall as “the most knowledgeable director I’ve ever worked with” and recalls once recording six hours of music for Malick but it was “infuriatingly worth it.” “We want to go and save the orchestras and make it a really cool place for artists,” says Zimmer, who adds that his studio in Santa Monica has always felt like a “hub of creativity” with “people helping each other out and throwing ideas at each other.”
