Elfman to score Hunger Games, Oz
It looks as though Danny Elfman will compose the music for the much anticipated film adaptation of the bestselling Hunger Games series, the composer revealed in an interview with Buzzine. This should be a good chance for Elfman to continue his move away from comic book franchises and into something a little different, although let’s hope he can give it a more distinctive sound than some of his recent work.
Perhaps more surprising is that Elfman will score the upcoming Sam Raimi film Oz, The Great and Powerful, despite the seemingly bitter disagreement the two had on Raimi’s Spiderman 2. I guess time heals all wounds, especially in Hollywood.
Also on slate for Elfman are Tim Burton projects Frankenweenie and Dark Shadows (Elfman scoring Burton? Shocking, I know.) and the sequel nobody asked for except Will Smith, Men In Black 3: We can’t do any worse than the last one.
