‘Borat 2’ Composer Erran Baron Cohen on Soundtracking Rudy Giuliani Scene and (Maybe) Playing "Wuhan Flu" at the Oscars
Given the on-screen insanity, an erratic, COVID-impacted production wrapped in secrecy, and very heavy use of editing, soundtracking a feature such as Amazon’s recent headline-amassing and Rudy Giuliani-angering Borat Subsequent Moviefilm may seem a tall order for any musician. But it’s a task that composer Erran Baron Cohen knows only too well, having worked with his younger brother Sacha Baron Cohen on all of his previous films and TV shows, including Who Is America?, The Dictator, Bruno, the first Boratfeature and, going back some 20 years, Da Ali G Show.
