Mario Grigorov – "Spides"

The series "Spides" – the first SYFY original produced in Germany – is led by Rainer Matsutani as showrunner and director. For "Spides", Matsutani, a genre film pioneer and lateral thinker in German film, has enlisted the help of Mario Grigorov, a film composer who knows how to work internationally, but who is nevertheless also rooted in Berlin. Grigorov has already worked with big international names such as "Harry Potter" director David Yates and contributed the score to "Fantastic Beasts", among others. Some of his best-known film scores come from his many years of collaboration with director and Oscar winner Lee Daniels, the creator of the successful television series "Empire".

At SoundTrack_Cologne, Grivorov will now shed light on his work on "Spides".
