Daniel Pemberton is an Ivor Novello-winning, multi–Golden Globe, OSCAR, Emmy and BAFTA Award-nominated composer who is regularly cited as one of the most exciting and original voices working in modern film scoring today.
Daniel’s recent work includes scoring Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, for which Daniel’s score received the HMMA Award for Best Original Score – Animated Film and a BAFTA Awards nomination for Best Original Score, Greg Berlanti’s Fly Me to the Moon, starring Scarlett Johannson and Channing Tatum, Ferrari directed by Michael Mann, David O.Russell’s Amsterdam, starring Margot Robbie, Christian Bale and John David Washington, both Enola Holmes films, directed by Harry Bradbeer and starring Millie Bobby Brown and the DreamWorks animated film The Bad Guys. Other projects include four series of Apple TV+’s Slow Horses for which Daniel collaborated with Mick Jagger on the theme song ‘Strange Game’, two series of The Afterparty, See How They Run starring Sam Rockwell, Saoirse Ronan and Adrien Brody, Being the Ricardos, starring Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem, for which Daniel’s score was BAFTA nominated, Brian and Charles and the NatGeo Documentary film The Rescue.
Further credits include Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7, from which the song ‘Hear My Voice’ that Daniel co-wrote with singer Celeste received an Oscar nomination, the Netflix documentary Rising Phoenix, showcasing the stories behind the Paralympic Games, DC Films Birds of Prey, directed by Cathy Yan and starring Margot Robbie, Edward Norton’s Motherless Brooklyn, for which Daniel’s incredible jazz score was nominated for a Golden Globe, Richard Curtis-penned Danny Boyle-directed Yesterday, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, Warner Bros’ Ocean’s Eight, and The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance for Netflix.
Daniel’s song, performed by Iggy Pop, from his score for the film Gold, starring Matthew McConaughey, was nominated for a 2017 Golden Globe Award – Best Original Song. The previous year he was nominated for Golden Globe Award – Best Original Score for Danny Boyle’s Steve Jobs, starring Michael Fassbender and Kate Winslet.
Drawing on a richly diverse set of influences, from English folk to hip-hop to nordic metal; Daniel’s score to Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword is a showcase of a composer unafraid to take risks and revel in pushing the boundaries of modern film scoring. His previous collaboration with Ritchie on The Man from U.N.C.L.E. was critically lauded for its bold writing and innovative arrangements earning him – alongside the features Steve Jobs and the Cannes Palm D’Or nominee Mal De Pierres – a nomination for Film Composer of the Year at the 2016 World Soundtrack Awards. He was previously honoured as Discovery of The Year at the World Soundtrack Awards in 2014 for his work on The Counselor as well as the features Blood, In Fear, and Cuban Fury.
Having worked in British television for over two decades on countless Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning dramas and documentaries (such as Peep Show, Complicit, Upstairs Downstairs, Dirk Gently, Prey, Space Dive, Occupation, Desperate Romantics and Hiroshima) his big break into feature films came after Ridley Scott was so impressed with Daniel’s debut film score in 2011 for the period supernatural thriller The Awakening that he hired him to score his feature The Counselor. The pair collaborated again on Scott’s first directorial foray into television, The Vatican, on the Watergate thriller Felt, produced by Scott, directed by Peter Landesman and starring Liam Neeson, and on All The Money In The World, starring Mark Wahlberg.
