Emmy-nominated composer Jared Michael Fry has been absolutely killing it lately. Most recently, he put his stamp on David Ayer’s “The Beekeeper,” that wild ride starring Jason Statham that everyone’s been talking about. But honestly, if you’ve caught a blockbuster action flick in the last few years, you’ve probably heard his work without even realizing it. This guy’s résumé is like a “who’s who” of big-budget cinema—“The Flash,” “Red Notice,” “Thirteen Lives,” “The Invisible Man,” and even the creeptastic “It Chapter 2.” Seriously, he doesn’t just dabble in genres; he dives in headfirst, whether it’s horror, thriller, or full-on superhero chaos. Before he broke out on his own, Jared racked up an Emmy nod while working at none other than Hans Zimmer’s Bleeding Fingers, which, let’s be honest, is kind of the musical equivalent of training with the Avengers. He’s not just some lone wolf, either. The dude’s teamed up with heavyweights like Benjamin Wallfisch, Steve Jablonsky, Joseph Trapanese, and, out of left field, Luke Steele from Empire of the Sun. That’s a pretty wild mix, right? He’s got that rare ability to adapt, blending electronic vibes with classic orchestral punches, and it just works. So if you find yourself humming along to a tense chase scene or getting chills during a dramatic reveal, odds are Jared Fry had something to do with it. The guy’s fingerprints are all over the modern movie soundscape, and honestly, it’s hard to imagine it without him.
