Harry Gregson-Williams (The Chronicles of Narnia, The Martian, Shrek, Mulan, The Equalizer, Man on Fire, Kingdom of Heaven) has composed the original music for the upcoming action drama Al Kameen (The Ambush). The film is directed by Pierre Morel (Taken, Peppermint, From Paris with Love) and stars Marwan Abdulla Saleh, Khalifa Al Jassem and Mohammed Ahmed. The movie centers on a rescue mission of a small group of Emirati soldiers trapped by rebel fighters in a mountainous valley. Brandon Birtell and Kurtis Birtell (Medal of Honor) wrote the screenplay. Derek Dauchy and Jennifer Roth (The Whole Truth, Guava Island) are producing the AGC Studios and Image Nation Abu Dhabi production. Al Kameen will be released theatrically in the UAE later this year. No word yet on a domestic release date.
Gregson-Williams’ other recent feature projects include Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel, which just opened in theaters this past weekend. He also has Scott’s House of Gucci (to be released on November 24, 2021) coming up.
