TRANSFORMERS Composer Steve Jablonsky To Score ENDER'S GAME
While it was initially reported that James Horner would score Gavin Hood's Ender's Game, it has now been confirmed that Transformers and Gangster Squad composer Steve Jablonsky has in fact landed the job. Read on for details!
Despite early reports that Avatar's James Horner would score Ender's Game, our friends over at First Showing have now confirmed that Steve Jablonsky will in fact be the composer on the Gavin Hood (X-Men: Origins: Wolverine helmed movie. While his name may not be instantly familiar, Jablonsky has previously provided scores for Michael Bay's Transformers trilogy, Your Highness, Battleship, Gangster Squad and most recently, Pain & Gain. The studio has backed up these reports, although it's unclear whether or not Horner was actually ever up for the job.
After an alien race called the Formics attacks Earth, the International Fleet prepare for the next invasion by training the best young children to find the future leader to lead the International Military. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy but strategically brilliant boy, is pulled out of his school to join International Fleet and attend the legendary Battle School. After easily mastering the increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect among his peers, Ender is soon ordained by Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) himself to lead the military into a war that will determine the future of Earth and the human race.
