TNT’s American post-apocalyptic drama television series The Last Ship is getting a new Main Title score for Season 3 thanks to the show’s composers James S. Levine and Jim Dooley.
Discussing the new Main Title Jim Dooley says, “As our story evolves we wanted our main title to do the same, as we experience new places and characters as they struggle to save humanity.”
James S. Levine goes on to say “Season 3’s Main Title is specific to the intrigue and transcontinental journey we take with the virus and our soldiers. The score for season 3 helps create tension and unease as their is a governmental power struggle in America after Captain Chandler must travel abroad to help contain the virus. We used various ethnic elements along with some very aggressive and unique contemporary sounds in an effort to create a dark and driving military score!”

Premiering Sunday, June 19 at 9/8, with a two-hour opener, Season 3 of the TNT action-drama finds the crew of the Nathan James shifting their attention to Asia after President Michener (played by Mark Moses) hears rumblings that the Chinese leader has been hoarding the “Scott cure” instead of distributing it to the people in the region.
Michener sends Chandler (Eric Dane) to a global summit to investigate this allegation as well as rumors that a possible mutation of the original virus has caused a fresh outbreak in Japan. If a mutation has occurred and Asia has not been protected, the consequences for the world are dire. And with elite paleomicrobiologist Rachel Scott (Rhona Mitra) shot in the Season 2 finale and her fate as yet unknown, hope is in low supply.
