More exciting news!!! James Newton Howard has been revealed as the composer of the score for Water for Elephants! Mr. Howard is an Emmy and Grammy winner along with a multiple Academy Award nominee. Some of my favourite movies are on his list of credits including, The Dark Knight (Oscar nominee), Pretty Woman, The Water Horse and, of course, I Am Legend, directed by one Francis Lawrence! This production just gets better and better!

this is kind of fascinating because i just watched a trailer for WFE and some of the music was taken from Nick Cave and Warren Ellis’s score for The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
