ComingSoon is pleased to debut an exclusive track from The Man Who Fell to Earth: Original Series Score, featuring music by Emmy-winning and Grammy-nominated composer Jeff Russo (Star Trek: Picard, Fargo, Oslo). The album is the companion to The Man Who Fell to Earth: Themes and Sketches which was released on June 10. Lakeshore Records is set to release the soundtrack digitally on September 30.
“The performances in The Man Who Fell To Earth, coupled with such an engaging and emotional story, made writing this score incredibly thrilling,” says Russo. “I really got to open up melodically and also have so much fun with it.”
Starring Oscar nominees Chiwetel Ejiofor and Naomi Harris, Showtime’s The Man Who Fell To Earth was inspired by the Walter Tevis novel of the same name and the iconic David Bowie film. The series follows a new alien character (Ejiofor) who arrives on Earth at a turning point in human evolution and must confront his own past to determine our future. Harris plays Justin Falls, a brilliant scientist and engineer who must conquer her own demons in the race to save two worlds.
Jeff Russo is an Emmy Award-winning and Grammy-nominated composer, scoring varied and compelling music for film, television, and video games. Russo received two Emmy nominations in 2021. One for his score of FX Networks’ Emmy Award-winning and Golden Globe-winning series Fargo, for which he won an Emmy in 2016 and earned two additional nominations. The second, for HBO Max’s Oslo, which he co-composed with Zoë Keating. Russo also received a BAFTA nomination for Best Music for Annapurna Interactive’s video game, What Remains of Edith Finch.
Russo’s film credits include Bartlett Sher’s Oslo, starring Ruth Wilson and Andrew Scott; Sabrina Doyle’s Lorelei, starring Jena Malone and Pablo Schreiber, which premiered at the 2020 Tribeca Film Festival; Noah Hawley’s Lucy in the Sky, starring Natalie Portman and Jon Hamm, which premiered at the 2019 Toronto Film Festival; Craig Macneill’s Lizzie, starring Chloe Sevigny and Kristen Stewart, which premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival; Peter Berg’s action-thriller film, Mile 22, starring Mark Wahlberg; and Jon Avnet’s Three Christs, starring Richard Gere, which premiered at the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival.
