Daniel Lopatin confirmed to score ‘Marty Supreme’
The highly anticipated Timothée Chalamet-fronted A24 movie, Marty Supreme, has announced that Daniel Lopatin is behind the original score.
This marks Lopatin’s latest collaboration with filmmaker Josh Safdie, who sits in the directorial seat. Lopatin has previously worked on the soundtrack for Safdie’s 2017 movie, Good Time, and for the 2019 hit, Uncut Gems.
The score will contain 23 tracks and “draws from neoclassical orchestration, widescreen synth ecstasy, and tactile 80s hardware, creating a universe that feels both devotional and deliriously futuristic.”
It will also include celestial performances from Laraaji and vocal layers from Weyes Blood, whose 2019 album Titanic Rising cemented her status as one of her generation’s most prodigious talents.
In the movie, Chalamet plays the titular table tennis star, loosely based on the American sportsman Marty Reisman. The movie has been in the works since his wife, producer Sara Rossein, stumbled upon a copy of Marty Reisman’s memoirs, The Money Player, in a second-hand store in 2018.
Marty Supreme enjoyed its world premiere on October 6th at the New York Film Festival during a surprise screening. The movie was introduced by Safdie and Chalamet before co-stars, including Tyler, the Creator and Gwyneth Paltrow, appeared following the movie.
Sharing the role with the world has been a long time coming for Chalamet, whose preparations took seven years. “Everything I was working on, it was this secret,” he explained. “I had a table in London while I was making Wonka. On Dune 2, I had a table in Budapest, Jordan. I had a table in Abu Dhabi.”
Marty Supreme will be released in cinemas on December 25th in the United States, and the following day in the UK.
