Timothy Williams (multi-award-winning composer).

This is my conversation with Timothy Williams. It took place in December 2024 from his home in California.
Timothy Williams is a multi-award-winning composer who has written music for some of the most iconic movie scenes in history, including the sunken place in Get Out!, the barn door opening in Pearl and the death of Leonidas in 300.
Tim has had a passion for film scores since he was a child. He fell in love with bringing stories to life with music always looking to find the perfect marriage of music for the story and visuals.
Timothy began as a classical concert pianist, but quickly found himself spending more time playing in bands and composing music than practicing. A move to LA in the early 2000s started this 20 year journey of having the opportunities to create music for some of the most iconic movies.
Early work included writing additional music, orchestrating and conducting films like 300, Watchmen, Super, Sucker Punch, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, (Fast and Furious presents) Hobbs and Shaw, Deadpool 2 and Get Out!
This breath of work lead to working as a composer with Robert Duvall on Wild Horses, John Moore on I.T., starring Pierce Brosnan, James Gunn and Dave Yarovesky on Brightburn, Tom Hanks on the documentary Beyond All Boundaries, Mario Van Peebles on Red Sky and Marc Meyers on We Summon The Darkness.
Tim recently co-scored the iconic Ti West's A24 film Pearl which won numerous international awards as best horror score.
Upcoming releases include Mary for Netflix, directed by D. J. Caruso, starring Anthony Hopkins, Locked, starring Bill Skarsgård and Anthony Hopkins, produced by Sam Raimi and directed by Dave Yarovesky, and Eye for An Eye for Leyline Entertainment (Everything Everywhere All At Once), starring Golda Rosheuvel (Bridgerton) and directed by Colin Tilley.
Other recent work includes Your Monster, the Sundance Audience Award Winner, directed by Caroline Lindy and starring Melissa Barrera, Lionsgate's The Bagman, starring Sam Claflin, Lionsgate/Roadside Attractions' Finding You and Mistura for Seine Pictures, directed by Ricardo De Montreuil, which recently won best picture at The NBFF.
Television work includes Netflix/Sony Animation's Agent Elvis, AMC/Shudder's Creepshow, Disney's Piney, the Fox pilot Richard Lovely, and additional music on CBS' Tracker, Fox's The Exorcist (S2), ABC's Missing and Cartoon Network's Sym Bionic Titan.
Tim's music has been released on multiple soundtracks from Milan Records, Lakeshore Records, Sony Records, A24, EMI, Lionsgate Records and MovieScoreMedia.
Tim holds British, Canadian and US Citizenship and is represented by Dan North at First Artists Management.
