Marcelo Zarvos (Fences, The Affair, Wonder, The Good Shepherd, Enough Said, A Journal for Jordan) is composing the original music for the new Showtime original series American Gigolo. The show is developed by David Hollander (Personal Effects) and stars Jon Bernthal, Gretchen Mol, Rosie O’Donnell, Lizzie Brocheré, Gabriel LaBelle and Leland Orser. The 8-part drama follows Julian Kaye, a present-day reimagining of Paul Schrader’s 1980 classic (scored by Giorgio Moroder), after his wrongful conviction release from prison as he navigates his complicated relationships with his former lover, his troubled mother, and the people who betrayed him. Nikki Toscano (The Offer) serves the showrunner and is also producing the project with Jerry Bruckheimer (who produced the original film), Jonathan Littman (CSI, Lucifer), KristieAnne Reed (Lucifer, Hightown) and Russell Rothberg (The Offer). Zarvos has previously scored the Hollander-produced Showtime series Ray Donovan. American Gigolo will premiere this coming Sunday, September 11 on Showtime.
As previously reported, Zarvos also has Antoine Fuqua’s feature Emancipation coming up.
