HENRY JACKMAN (Composer) has established himself as one of today’s top composers by fusing his classical training and his experience as a successful record producer and creator of electronic music. His musical versatility ratcheted up the tension in Paul Greengrass’s “Captain Phillips,” earning him a BAFTA nomination; super-powered such comic book hits as “X-Men: First Class” and “Captain America: Winter Soldier”; kicked ass in “Kingsman: The Secret Service” and “Kick-Ass”; and breathed musical life into legendary animated characters in “Winnie the Pooh,” “Puss in Boots,” “Wreck-It Ralph” and Oscar-winner “Big Hero 6.”
His most recent work can be heard in the sci-fi comedy “Pixels”; the post-apocalyptic drama “The Fifth Wave”; the blockbuster hit “Captain America: Civil War”; “Birth of a Nation,” which screened at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival; and “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back.” Among his other diverse credits are the animated features “Monsters vs. Aliens” and “Turbo”; the period drama “Henri 4”; the family adventure “Gulliver’s Travels”; the crime thriller “Man on a Ledge”; the horror fantasy “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter”; and the Seth Rogen/James Franco comedies “This is the End” and the firestorm sensation “The Interview.”
