It simply wouldn’t be a Star Wars film without the epic, sweeping, and heroic music of John Williams. Star Wars: The Last Jedi was no exception, with the iconic composer offering up what were– arguably — some of his strongest pieces in years. Recently, on Twitter, director Rian Johnson was kind enough to share some footage of John Williams, and company scoring the film. You can see the master at work below:

Also, in case you were somehow afraid that John Williams wouldn’t be back for the trilogy-closing Star Wars: Episode IX, fear not: the composer has confirmed that he will be working on the upcoming J.J. Abrams directed film.
