Here’s where to find The Disaster Artist in select cities starting today! Opens wide next week –

A great celebration last night here in LA for this little movie that has defied a lot of odds… and through the sheer will and talent of this gentleman, James Franco, will get to find the audience it deserves. I’m biased, of course, but think he deserves an enormous amount of credit and some serious award season consideration. It was a privilege to work with him on this project – and his passion for it was infectious. The Disaster Artist opens limited Dec 1 and wide Dec 8th.

Score soundtrack news coming soon!

It is always gratifying to have your work recognized by folks who toil in the same world as you do, and I’m very flattered to have been nominated for a World Soundtrack Award this year. I’ll be attending the event in Ghent, Belgium and giving a talk about tv music on October 18th. Looking forward to it –

I recently spoke with @TheBlacklistGSM about @NBCBlacklist S5, which debuts tonight at 8pm on NBC. We also discussed my newly released score album from the series, as well as some of my other projects. You can listen in here: https://buff.ly/2wbzSqP

The Blacklist returns to NBC for its 5th season at a new time – Wednesdays at 8pm beginning next week September 27th. To celebrate, with help from my good friends at SONY Pictures Television and Madison Gate Records, I’m pleased to announce that we’ve released a score soundtrack that covers my music from seasons 1-4. 26 tracks in all — it releases today and is available now! No songs, purely score. Everything was completely remixed for the soundtrack and in many cases the original cues have been augmented and improved.
Big thanks to my friend of more than 20 years, Greg Laporta, who co-wrote a number of these tracks with me. Thanks also to music editor Roger Kosteck as well as Michael Traylor, James Saez, and Riley Smith for help getting the soundtrack together.
To sample or purchase it is available at iTunes and Amazon now!

The first teaser trailer for “The Disaster Artist” has arrived! I loved working on this and I’m so glad it is getting a strong theatrical release during awards season because James Franco absolutely kills it — both in front of and behind the camera.
