Lin-Manuel Miranda Composes Song for New Star Wars Movie
By Barbara Gonzalez
From his hit Broadway musical “ In the Heights,” to his most recent success with “Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda never ceases to amaze us.
This past Monday on the “Tonight Show,” Director, J.J. Abrams announced that he and Lin-Manuel have joined forces to collaborate on a brand new song for the “Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens” revival movie.
The original cantina song (which can be heard here) was a wordless jazz-style tune, but maybe we can hope for a bit more hip-hop influence with Lin-Manuel on the track.
In the meantime, I haven’t felt this excited for a collaboration since J Biebs and J Balvin’s “Sorry” Latino Remix.
