Hans Zimmer to Score "Man of Steel"

Hans Zimmer, the composer who crafted the amazing soundscapes heard in many of Christopher Nolan's films, has been slated to compose the new Superman flick, Man of Steel. Initially there were rumors, but were silenced by Zimmer himself in 2010.

This is good news. I find myself hearing his menacing strings from The Dark Knight playing in my head ever so often. His ability to create the sound of the Joker was a beautiful marriage to Heath Ledger's sinister portrayal. 

It makes sense that he would be involved, in my opinion. Nolan is the producer of the new flick and from the looks of the stills they are going for a darker appeal this time and Zimmer has proven that he can bring the darkness when it comes to sound.
