Michael Giacchino (the composer behind Alias, Lost, Mission: Impossible III, and Speed Racer) was in charge of composing the music for J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek.
“I grew up listening to all of that great Trek music, and that’s part of what inspired me to do what I’m doing […] You just go in scared. You just hope you do your best. It’s one of those things where the film will tell me what to do.”
Music Composer Michael Giacchino
