Supergirl Movie Lands Game of Thrones Composer for Epic Soundtrack
DC Studios’ Supergirl film just scored a major creative win, bringing on a legendary composer whose work has defined blockbuster soundtracks for years. Discover how this bold move could set Supergirl apart from Superman and reshape the DC cinematic experience.
DC Studios is making a bold statement with its upcoming Supergirl film, enlisting a powerhouse in the world of film music. The production has tapped Ramin Djawadi, the acclaimed composer behind some of the most memorable scores in recent memory, to craft the movie’s soundtrack. Djawadi’s work has left a lasting mark on pop culture, from the pulse-pounding themes of Iron Man to the haunting melodies of Game of Thrones, where his music was often the highlight of even the most divisive episodes.

With Djawadi on board, Supergirl is poised to deliver a musical experience that goes far beyond the typical superhero origin story. His ability to elevate characters and moments with his music suggests that this film will offer something truly cinematic, not just another entry in the genre.
Reuniting with Milly Alcock for a Fresh Take on a Heroine
Directed by Craig Gillespie, the film stars Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El. Djawadi and Alcock have previously worked together on House of the Dragon, where his score added depth and emotion to her portrayal of a young Targaryen princess. Now, they’re teaming up again, but this time Alcock steps into the shoes of a Kryptonian adventurer with a rebellious streak. Djawadi’s music is known for making heroes feel larger than life and villains truly menacing, so his touch is expected to highlight both Kara’s superhuman strength and her relatable vulnerabilities.
Alcock’s version of Kara brings a youthful, defiant energy reminiscent of her earlier roles, and Djawadi’s compositions are likely to capture that spirit. His knack for creating unforgettable themes could make Kara’s journey resonate with audiences in a way that sets her apart from other DC heroes.
Setting a New Standard for DC Movie Scores
While recent Superman films have impressed visually, their soundtracks haven’t always left a lasting impression—aside from standout tracks like "Punkrocker" by Teddybears. In contrast, Hans Zimmer’s work on Man of Steel, especially the "Flight" theme, gave viewers a sense of soaring alongside the hero. Djawadi’s style, known for its slow builds and powerful crescendos, is well-suited to deliver a similarly impactful experience for Supergirl.
Many fans are hoping for a theme as electrifying as Wonder Woman’s, but with Djawadi’s unique approach, there’s a real chance he’ll create something even more memorable. The anticipation is high to see how his artistry will shape the sound of Supergirl’s world when the film hits theaters on June 26, 2026.
