Deadline Launches Sound & Screen Film Streaming Site

Deadline on Tuesday launched the streaming hub for its Sound & Screen Film, its showcase of the music behind the awards season’s buzziest films and the artists who created it.

A total of 11 films from 13 studios, streamers and production companies took part in the event, one of Deadline’s most popular, which took place November 6 at UCLA’s Royce Hall. Backed by a full orchestra, composers and songwriters took to the stage to perform their scores and songs live, and discussed the evolution of their works.

This year’s composers included Daniel Pemberton, the composer of both blockbuster pic Project Hail Mary and Alex Gibney’s documentary Musk; Kris Bowers with The Eyes of Ghana; Siddhartha Khosla with the animated Swapped; Michael Abels for his South Korean sci-fi mashup Hope; Francesco Le Metre with Being Heumann; Rebekka Karijord with Tenzing; and the band Son Lux with its music for Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother.

As for songwriters, Diana Warren returned to the Sound & Screen stage to perform “One Right Here” from Maserati: The Brothers, a team-up of Andrea Bocelli and Jennifer Hudson; Marcus “Bellringer” Bell broke down the inspirations for his The Greatest song “Walk With Kings”; 4 Non Blondes frontwoman Linda Perry performed “What Lies With You” from the documentary Linda Perry: Let It Die Here; and David Byrne joined Pemberton to reveal how they came up with “Let Me Sell You a Dream,” the song that plays over the end credits of Musk.

The companies taking part in this year’s event: Amazon MGM Studios, Apple Original Films, Bleecker Street, Breakwater Studios, Higher Ground Productions, KTF Films, Magenta Light Studios, Mercury Studios, Netflix, Neon, Orion Pictures, Skydance Animation and Prime Video.

Next up on Deadline’s awards-season calendar is Contenders Los Angeles, its annual film-panel event with casts and creatives set to take place all day November 14 at the DGA Theater.
