It’s heartening to hear Dominic Lewis admit that there’s the work he’s doing and the work he still wants to do.

As one of today’s most in-demand composers, Lewis has built a career spanning blockbusters like The Fall Guy and Nobody 2, acclaimed series like Your Friends & Neighbors and The Man in the High Castle, and films as varied as Bullet Train, Peter Rabbit, Karate Kid: Legends, and Big Hero 6. His range is remarkable, and his success undeniable.

Yet even with such an impressive résumé, Lewis is refreshingly open about the tension between creative satisfaction and creative longing. On this episode of The Resistance, he reflects on the balance between taking on the work that pays the bills and pursuing the projects that fuel his passions. Along the way, he opens up about ambition, balance, and why music remains not just a job but an obsession.

This episode with Dominic Lewis explores how even good work can sometimes stand in the way of our truest work, and what it means to keep chasing that deeper artistic calling.
