Summary

We interview Obi-Wan Kenobi and Marvel's Loki composter Natalie Holt! Natalie revealed some of the secrets behind her score for the show. She went into details on the process of creating music for Star Wars, as well as comparing the differences between working for Marvel (Loki) and Lucasfilm. Holt also described the hierarchy of music approval, including Kathleen Kennedy listening to and approving or rejecting certain ideas. And of course, John Williams being on board gave them the thumbs up to use his classic themes in the final episode, to which she explains how he came to be involved.
