Dark Phoenix
(Original Motion
Picture Soundtrack)
Hans Zimmer
The legendary German film score composer
Hans Zimmer, who has scored a range
of top-tier films including The Lion King,
Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Interstellar and
Dunkirk, has now also composed the score
for Dark Phoenix, the final installment in
the main X-Men film series that started
back in 2000.
FIVE FACTS:
- Zimmer’s musical trademark has long been
his integration of electronic music sounds
with traditional orchestral arrangements. - Directors with which he has collaborated
for film scores include Sir Ridley Scott,
Ron Howard, Michael Bay, John Woo and
Christopher Nolan. - Originally, after scoring 2016’s Batman
v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Zimmer
announced that he had “officially retired”
from composing scores for superhero films. - However, Zimmer later explained that
director Ron Howard had persuaded him to
wait for a suitable story rather than avoid a
whole genre – hence his acceptance of the
Dark Phoenix job. - The film has had mixed reviews, with
criticism particularly focused on its plot and
character development, although Sophie
Turner’s performance in the eponymous role
has attracted praise.
