Archive Collection 214 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 The first Harry Potter, the seventh Star Wars, and Hook all had original music by John Williams Most The Dark Knight trilogy had original trailer music by Hans Zimmer & co. (one of the Batman v Superman trailers also had original music by Tom Holkenborg). If I recall correctly, TENET had some original music by Ludwig Göransson that was recorded pre-COVID. I believe they ended up tracking some of those recordings into the final score too. A few Burton/Elfman collaborations - Mars Attacks, Edward Scissorhands - had original trailer music too, written by Elfman himself. I'm sure there are plenty more examples like this. Those are the first that come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondheim 1,157 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Nixon's trailer cue is probably the best in the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NL197 368 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Horner did unused trailer music for Casper, did partially used music for Titanic, both on their expanded LLL releases. He also wrote unused trailer music for Cocoon, but I don’t know if it was recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,433 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Jerry Goldsmith for Rambo: First Blood Part.II The trailer from Lincoln, Superman: The Movie and War Horse contain John Williams music (don't if it was composed by him for the trailer though) You also have Steve Jablonsky whose music is often used in trailer like in The Amazing Spider-Man or Avatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per the rerecording, this is the one Korngold composed: But for all I know he could have done both.

According to the description, the huge statement at the end is by this guy, who "released" it in a sampler (below), but there are quite a few very realistic recreations on YouTube.

I didn't have the original cue memorised though, and the ending didn't seem to be taken from the actual score, so I figured it must be the correct trailer.

Thor 7,504 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 The aforementioned JUDGE DREDD by Goldsmith is one of the few I can think of, where a big name composer scored the trailer, but not the eventual film (yes, I know he was slated to score it).

GerateWohl 4,368 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 For some time Chris Young's main titles for copycat were often used in trailers. But I guess Reise doesn't count here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark 314 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 John Murphy’s two famous cues have been used in a number of trailers I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo Joseph 29 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Great topic! I remember in the 90's / early 2000's most of trailers used music from other movies, like Randy Edelman's scores from Come see the paradise, Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story and Dragonheart featured prominently in a lot of them, or Bishop's countdown from Aliens, a champ on action movies trailers. These days I don't watch a lot of trailers, not a spoiler fan, but my perception is that they use much more original music made specially for the previews. Is there's some cue or score used a lot in trailers these days? And a great original trailer music is Jerry Goldsmith's Extreme Prejudice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerateWohl 4,368 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 According to the booklet of the Deluxe Edition of the Aliens score "Bishop's Countdown" has been used on several trailers in the 90s. Even though the end of the action part from 01:08 sounds rather like the music from a film from 1977 where some big globe space station explodes because some guy put a torpedo into space ventilation shaft (whatever they were ventilating there in space).
