In 2019, Avengers: Endgame ended a saga of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that began with 2008's Iron Man. Over half a decade later, it remains fresh in the memories of Marvel fans who flocked to the theaters to see the superheroes team up for the final adventure, for the time being. It was a massive cultural event that offered an emotional farewell. Whether it was Captain America, Thor, Ant-Man, or the Guardians of the Galaxy, all heroes had joined the fight against the mighty Thanos, who could decimate people with a mere finger snap.
Along with all the high points that quenched the thirst of adrenaline junkies, there were also emotional points that made them sob uncontrollably. Some of these moments were backed by a powerful musical cue that enhanced the overall impact. Beyond all the CGI work and the orchestrated fight scenes, these musical choices helped in its storytelling. Some of them lifted the scenes' dramatic tension, the others provided a moody, soulful undercurrent. Whether peppy or nostalgic, they got the Marvel fans swinging their heads at just the right times.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, this movie offered a mix of previously recorded music tracks along with a musical score specifically composed for the film. Let's dive into the details below.
Avengers: Endgame - Who scored the MCU movie's original motion picture soundtrack?
Alan Silvestri, an American music composer, worked on the original soundtrack of Avengers: Endgame. He produced 35 tracks for the movie, which helped the dramatic moments to flourish without sounding drab, soulless, or offensive. However, that's not the only high-profile project he has worked on.
Silvestri has had a celebrated career with two Oscar nominations under his belt: one for the original score of Forrest Gump and the second one for the original song Believe in The Polar Express. His other popular projects include Cast Away (2000), Back to the Future (1985), Predator (1987), Allied (2016), and Avengers: Infinity War (2018).
