John Corigliano: Edge of Darkness


John Corigliano, one of the most acclaimed composers of contemporary concert music who wrote the groundbreaking score for Altered States in 1980 and won an Oscar for The Red Violin ten years ago, is making a spectacular comeback to the film scoring stage. The Gorfaine-Schwartz Agency confirms that Corigliano is doing the music for Edge of Darkness, the new thriller from director Martin Campbell.

Edge of Darkness is an upcoming film adaptation of Edge of Darkness, a 1985 BBC television series. It stars Mel Gibson and Ray Winstone, and is directed and produced by Martin Campbell and Michael Wearing, who also directed and produced the original. The film follows a detective (Gibson) investigating the murder of his activist daughter, uncovering political conspiracies and cover-ups in the process.
