Ludwig Göransson is best known for his work with Childish Gambino, Ryan Coogler, on Disney's The Mandalorian and most recently the Christopher Nolan blockbuster TENET.

One of the things that helped Edith and her family no end during lockdown was having access to the entire Pixar back catalogue through Disney Plus.
