The news comes by way of a recent interview with Associated Press, where the illustrious composer detailed his feelings about his future and reflected upon his career:
It’s not the first time that the 90-year-old has considered retirement. In fact, back in 2018, Williams announced that 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker was going to be his final Star Wars score. Thankfully, to the joy of fans around the globe, Williams walked back his statement and came out of Star Wars retirement to score the recent TV miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Meanwhile, in an interview with The Violin Channel earlier this year, the Harry Potter composer was candid about his feelings about making music for film:
Ultimately, it can’t be emphasised enough how much of a huge impact Williams has had on cinema. From Jaws’ simplistic piano tune, which went on to become one of the most terrifying scores in film to the sweeping, emotionally-charged strings and brass of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Jurassic Park; John Williams is a household name in the music business and ubiquitous with the whole cinematic experience that we know and love so well today.
