GODZILLA VS. KONG Reportedly Enlists MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Composer Junkie XL

We're still waiting on an official update regarding Warner Bros.' release plans for Godzilla Vs. Kong, but we do have some news that's sure to please film score fans.

According to Film Music Reporter, Tom Holkenborg has been busy putting together the score for Adam Wingard's follow up to Godzilla: King of the Monsters. The fan-favorite composer, better known as Junkie XL, is known for his incredible work on the likes of Mad Max: Fury Road, Deadpool, Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Alita: Battle Angel.

Holkenborg's involvement has yet to be confirmed by Legendary, but that's hardly surprising. As far as we know the movie is still scheduled to hit theaters this November, but with not so much as a single official still released to promote the movie, there's a lot of speculation that it'll ultimately end up getting pushed to 2021.

Starring Alexander Skarsgard, Millie Bobby Brown, Rebecca Hall, Eiza González, Julian Dennison, Shun Oguri, Jessica Henwick and Brian Tyree Henry. Godzilla Vs. Kong pits the two famous monsters against each other in an epic battle. Eric Pearson (Thor: Ragnarok) and Max Borenstein (The Terror) wrote the screenplay.

I like his Fury Road score a lot, but everything else he's composed just sounds like noise to me

@tmp3 - His Batman V Superman score is quite good, regardless of what you think of the movie.

@BigMikeReviews - I really don't like his Batman theme, and the score as a whole felt like a big step-down from Zimmer's great work on Man of Steel

@tmp3 - Well we can both agree that Dany Elfman's score for JL was a big step down from both Junkie and Zimmer then haha

@BigMikeReviews - Elfman's work on JL was amateurish. There's phoning it in, and then there's what Elfman did on JL.

I was hoping Bear McCreary would come back, but this is great news. As long as he gives us something like what he did for Mad Max Fury Road and works in a few of the classic themes here and there it's going to be perfect.

Also Adam Wingard posted a picture of Tom Holkenborg's studio on his Instagram, it's definitely official.

I wonder if Snyder is going to get him and Zimmer back for JL, unless they already scored it and their work was replaced by Elfman.
