mrbellamy 6,287 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 If we believe IMDB (which we do with a grain of salt) Dario Marianelli seems to be attached to the upcoming (2015) revamping of the legend of Peter Pan named succintly Pan.This could be something quite excellent if this turns out to be true. Probably true since Marianelli has a pretty steady collaboration with the director Joe Wright. He's only missed one of his films and I doubt they'd ask The Chemical Brothers to do Peter Pan.

Matt C 454 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Even though I'm for directors to bring in composers they want, the composers brought in for tax breaks tend to do a great job. (Makes me wish what Federico Justo could've done with 300: Rise of an Empire.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 The thing is, the credits on this particular franchise are very confusing. For example Klaus Badelt is credited as the lead composer when we know Hans did the majority of it (along with his assistants of course) but was contractually obligated by Last Samurai so he couldn't put his name on it -and I think he didn't want to either. On the following scores, he is credited as the lead composer as he became insanely popular during the first movie's release but by POTC4 he barely composed any actual score for the film, apart from the main themes and suites.So I don't really know how this one's gonna go, I suppose Hans will still compose the main themes and such though.

By this point though, he's the most popular film composer on the planet, and so I guess getting his name on the soundtrack is a big deal. That he seemed to prefer remixes over score on the 4th CD speaks volumes to me about his investment.Zanelli's material is a little generic to my ears, but he seems proud of his involvement in the franchise (see his website). I like some of his stuff (Into the West), and find others unremarkable (The Pacific). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Zanelli has been there from the beginning. It'll be great for him to be able to flex his skills on his own, though I'm sure Hans will be close by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 On the FSM board, someone is saying Alberto Iglesias was sacked from Exodus: Gods and Kings and he's being replaced by James Newton HowardI hope so. I'm not a fan of Ablerto Iglesias and JNH is my favorite active composer right now. I'd love to see what he'd do with the assignment. Also, Thomas Newman is no longer listed as composer on the IMDB page for The Good Dinosaur if that means anything (it probably doesn't) and Alejandro de la Llosa, who's worked on a couple John Williams scores of recent years is listed as "music supervisor". One can only hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
