Who composed the score for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse?

Daniel Pemberton composed the score for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Pemberton was announced as the film’s composer in July 2018, several months before the animated feature reached cinemas. His score helps give the movie its distinctive, energetic sound while supporting Miles Morales’s transformation from an uncertain teenager into Spider-Man. The music blends orchestral writing with electronic textures and rhythmic ideas suited to the film’s comic-book-inspired visual style.

The movie also has a separate soundtrack album featuring contemporary songs selected to reflect Miles’s teenage world and musical taste. That album includes artists such as Post Malone, Swae Lee, Nicki Minaj, Jaden Smith and Vince Staples. It is different from Pemberton’s instrumental film score, a distinction that can cause confusion.

Pemberton returned to compose the score for the 2023 sequel, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. He is also known for scoring films including Steve Jobs, The Trial of the Chicago 7 and Being the Ricardos.
