Hesham Nazih Joins Marvel Again to Score 'Eyes of Wakanda' Animated Series, Streaming August 6 on Disney+
Renowned Egyptian composer Hesham Nazih has announced his latest collaboration with Marvel Animation: composing the score for Eyes of Wakanda, a new animated series set to premiere on Disney+ on August 6, 2025. Nazih shared the exciting news via his official platforms, marking his second partnership with Marvel following the global acclaim he received for his work on Moon Knight (2022). His Moon Knight score was widely praised for its musical depth and seamless fusion of Egyptian identity with Hollywood-style storytelling. What Is Eyes of Wakanda? Set in the same universe as Black Panther, Eyes of Wakanda is one of the first projects in Marvel's Phase Six and consists of four animated episodes produced by Marvel Animation. The story follows elite Wakandan warriors known as the 'Hatut Zeraze' or 'War Dogs,' tasked across different eras with retrieving lost pieces of vibranium — the powerful, mysterious metal unique to Wakanda. Described by some as an 'African James Bond,' the series dives into Wakanda's hidden history, blending espionage, sci-fi, and high-stakes action in a thrilling animated journey.

Hesham Nazih to Compose Score of Marvel's New Series ‘Eyes of Wakanda'
The Egyptian composer is once again working with Marvel Studio following his score on 'Moon Knight'. May 29, 2025 News of a second season of 'Moon Knight' may be scarce, but it doesn't mean Marvel Studios has stepped away from tapping Egyptian talent to tune up their work. Award winning composer Hesham Nazih has been selected to write the score for Marvel Studios' newest animated series 'Eyes of Wakanda'. Nazih's score for the 2022 live action series 'Moon Knight' received international attention for incorporating elements of Egyptian musical heritage into a modern orchestral framework, and has received multiple nominations and awards, including Best Original Score for a Television Series at the 2023 International Film Critics Award. He also composed the music for Egypt's Pharaohs' Golden Parade in 2021, and has worked on a number of Egyptian blockbusters including 'Kira & El Gin', 'Welad El Rizk', 'The Blue Elephant', 'The Originals', and 'Ibrahim Labyad'. He was the first composer to have ever received the Faten Hamama Excellence Award by the Cairo International Film Festival in 2018. 'Eyes of Wakanda' is part of Marvel's animated expansion and is a spin-off from the Black Panther franchise. The series follows Wakandan warriors throughout history as they search for vibranium artefacts across the globe, and is scheduled for release on August 6th, 2025 on the Disney+ streaming platform.
