In the mid 1990´s, Lucasfilm released a "Star Wars" event in the form of a new storyline called "Shadows of the Empire". It had all the merchandise of a movie, but without the movie. It had a pocket book, a CD with orchestral music, a Nintendo 64 videogame and action figures.
The CD with the soundtrack of the non-existent movie was sort of the pride of my Star Wars collection. It had the original John Williams theme and had original themes made to match imaginary scenes in the book. The new themes were composed by Joel McNeely who also had made one amazing soundtrack for the "Young Indiana Jones Chronicles".
Somehow i always imagined that Joel McNeely would be the sucessor of John Williams after he retires.
But eventually i think the title of a John Williams sucessor was split between Michael Giacchino (Star Trek 2009, Rogue One), John Ottman (X-men 2, Solo) and Joel McNeely (the Orville).
