Deadline on Monday launched the streaming site for Sound & Screen Television 2025, its annual TV music showcase that took place May 7 at UCLA’s Royce Hall. The event featured the composers from 11 buzzy awards-season series discussing their music and then playing it with the help of a 60-piece orchestra.
This year’s participants ran the gamut with shows based on video games, graphic novels, comics and iconic novels, as well as genres ranging from thrillers and mysteries to sci-fi, comedies and dramas. The list of composer panelists is equally diverse, with Oscar winners including Gustavo Santaolalla and Volker Bertelmann and Emmy winners like Bear McCreary and Siddhartha Khosla the mix.
The complete lineup featured music from Apple TV+’s Severance and Shrinking, HBO | Max’s The Last of Us and The Penguin, Hulu’s Paradise, Netflix’s Squid Game, Peacock’s The Day of the Jackal, Prime Video’s The Boys and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Riot Games and Netflix’s Arcane, and Sony Pictures Television and Peacock’s Long Bright River.
Sound & Screen Television is the latest Deadline event to turn the spotlight on the TV awards season, following the two-day Contenders Television and the virtual Contenders Television: Documentary, Unscripted & Variety.
