Trevor Morris (born 25 May 1970) is a Canadian orchestral composer and music producer. His scores include the television showsThe Tudors,The Pillars of the Earth,The Borgias, andVikings; the filmOlympus Has Fallen and its sequelLondon Has Fallen; and the video gameDragon Age: Inquisition.

Morris was born inLondon, Ontario, Canada, 2 hours west ofToronto. He was accepted to St. Mary's school for the arts as a child, where he studied violin and choir daily. At age 13, Morris was commissioned by his school to compose a piece for his graduating class to perform in honor of thePope John Paul II's visit to Canada. His fee was $50.Beloved Young People, a book authored by the Pope aimed at the youth of the generation became the source for adapted lyrics, and Trevor's senior class performed his composition for Piano and 4-part Choir at St. Mary's cathedral at graduation. It was a defining moment that would shape Trevor's future.

At college Morris attended,Fanshawe College's "Music Industry Arts" program. He graduated top of his class and upon graduation immediately moved to Toronto to start work. He spent his 20s in the music production circles of Toronto but eventually turned his attention away from production and over to composing full-time music for television commercials. Wanting a longer format for his music ideas, Morris moved towards scoring films and television series and in 1999 he moved toLos Angeles to follow this new career angle. During his early years in Los Angeles, Morris worked with famous score composers,James Newton Howard andHans Zimmer. As part of Zimmer's team, Morris amassed over 25 major screen credits on some of Hollywood's block busters.

In 2007 Morris received the EMMY award for best music composition for a television series main title forThe Tudors. 2010 marked Morris' fourth television collaboration with Jerry Bruckheimer and his team. Morris also completed the mini-seriesThe Pillars of the Earth with Tony and Ridley Scott producing.
