Nicholas Hooper is a British film composer.

Before Potter
In the past, he has scored the award-winning BBC productions Land of the Tiger and Andes to Amazon, as well as the TV movies My Family and Other Animals, and The Girl in the Café, amongst others. Hooper won a BAFTA Award for Original Score in 2004 for The Young Visitors and a BAFTA for Best Original Television Music in 2007 for Prime Suspect:The Final Act: starring Helen Mirren. Prime Suspect: The Final Act was an ITV and WGBH co-production. Before his work on Harry Potter, he hadn't composed for a blockbuster film.

Harry Potter films
He was nominated for World Soundtrack Award for his score for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in 2007, as well as a Saturn Award for the same film in 2008. He most recently composed the score for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

In July 2009 a week after the successful release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, iF Magazine released an interview with Hooper noting in his final words that he will not be composing the soundtracks for the final two films.
