Hans Zimmer says that he has turned down the Marvel Cinematic Universe and doesn’t suppose he may very well be trustworthy to a Star Warfare rating.
With a profession in movie composing that has lasted greater than 40 years, Hans Zimmer has run the gamut. Regardless of having a definite sound that always makes you acknowledge it as a Zimmer, the person’s work has vary: Rain Man, The Lion King, Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, Dune…However there are two franchises that Zimmer will completely by no means work inside: the MCU and Star Wars.
Showing on the Pleased Unhappy Confused podcast, Hans Zimmer stated that whereas he has been approached by Marvel, he had a few conflicts. “They have, and it was always…timing wasn’t great. And really, quite honestly, I’m looking for other things right now. Look, I’ve done the trifecta — I’ve done Batman, Superman, and Spider-Man, and Wonder Woman! I mean, what do you want me to do, some of the minor characters?” (By the way in which, the phrase Zimmer would actually be searching for is “quadfecta”.) He added, “That was very arrogant of me to say that, but actually, Kevin Feige said that to me: ‘Hans, what are you complaining about?’”
As for Star Wars, Hans Zimmer stated that his model could also be from a galaxy too far, distant to suit the Star Wars mould. “How many interesting things do you want to put onto this thing before it falls apart and isn’t Star Wars anymore? Because the only way I would see myself is if I could reinvent it.” On the matter, Zimmer did reward the work of Ludwig Göransson, who did the music for The Mandalorian.
Of word, just one MCU film has ever been nominated for Greatest Unique Rating: Black Panther, with Göransson taking dwelling the Oscar (he would later win once more for Oppenheimer, directed by frequent Zimmer collaborator Christopher Nolan). And whereas the Star Wars collection has a complete of 4 nods, solely John Wiliams’ unique took dwelling the statue, marking his third (of 5 wins). Zimmer, in the meantime, has two wins out of 12 nominations.
This yr, Hans Zimmer has a rating credit score on Joseph Kosinski’s F1 starring Brad Pitt.
