Composer John Williams, who is most famous for writing the Star Wars Theme song has also created themes for Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter and so many more. Personally, I did not realize this until the other day when I noticed the Jurassic Park theme was written by John Williams. I only knew him for the Star Wars theme. Then I googled his name and was totally shocked with disbelief.
At 90 years old, John Williams has 53 Oscar nominations and has won 5. Williams holds the status of living person with most nominations for any one person in history. I imagine every person in America has seen one of John Williams’ movies he’s composed music for. In complete shock and awe, I have compiled a full list of movies and soundtracks he has blessed us with over the span of his career. We’ll also list them in order of release date starting with the oldest. Newest movies are at the bottom of this page.
