Max Richter (The Leftovers, Ad Astra, Mary Queen of Scots, Hostiles, Waltz with Bashir, Taboo, Miss Sloane) has composed the original music for the upcoming Netflix original film Spaceman. The sci-fi drama is directed by Johan Renck (Chernobyl, The Last Panthers) and stars Adam Sandler, Carey Mulligan, Paul Dano and Kunal Nayyar. The movie based on the novel Spaceman of Bohemia by Jaroslav Kalfar tells the story of an astronaut who is sent to the edge of the galaxy to collect mysterious ancient dust and finds his earthly life falling to pieces, when he turns to a creature from the beginning of time who can help him try to put it back together. Colby Day wrote the screenplay. Channing Tatum, Reid Carolin & Peter Kiernan (Dog, Magic Mike’s Last Dance) are producing the project with Michael Parets, Tim Headington (Hugo, The Green Knight), Lia Buman (Resurrection) and Max Silva (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story). Spaceman is set to premiere this fall on Netflix.
Richter is also expected to return as the composer of the second season of Apple TV+’s Invasion, which will debut on August 23, 2023.
