As if the presence of Hans Zimmer’s wasn’t already enough to lift , the composer has managed to recruit something of a supergroup to help him score the forthcoming sequel.
Zimmer has signed up none other than Johnny Marr, Pharrell Williams, Dave Stewart and Incubus’s Michael Einziger to lend a hand to what promises to be a rather special soundtrack.
“Marc [ Webb ] and I were talking about Spider-Man, and as the word got out, so many of our friends and musicians started calling us up, wanting to be a part of it, because they love Spider-Man," said Zimmer.
"With all of these hugely talented people wanting to join us, it was Marc who said, 'Why not start a band?' Marc and I have had a great start jamming with everybody, and we still have a few surprises up our sleeve.”
A choreographed musical section in which Andrew Garfield dances through a Manhattan jazz club? Hopefully not. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will open in the UK on 18 April 2014.
George was once GamesRadar's resident movie news person, based out of London. He understands that all men must die, but he'd rather no💃t think about it. But now he's working at Stylist Magazine.
