JUSTICE LEAGUE Gets A New Composer As Danny Elfman Joins Director Joss Whedon For Reshoots
No stranger to superhero movie soundtracks, Danny Elfman will now take over from Junkie XL and compose a new score for Justice League, which recently began reshoots under director Joss Whedon.
Joss Whedon recently commenced reshoots for Justice League in London, and THR reports that the director has brought in his Avengers: Age of Ultron composer to work on the score for the new scenes.
Danny Elfman will take over from Antonius Holkenborg, aka Junkie XL, who had been working with Zack Snyder on the film until the Batman V Superman director handed the reigns over to Whedon following the tragic suicide of his daughter, Autumn. Holkenborg will now reportedly move on to the recently wrapped Tomb Raider reboot.
Elfman is arguably best known for his superb score for Tim Burton's Batman but he also worked on Sam Raimi's first two Spider-Man movies, and was actually a late addition to Age of Ultron, too, adding to the music already written by Brian Tyler.
