Hans Zimmer Officially Retires From Scoring Superhero Films


A sad day for us film soundtrack fans and comic book fans.

Today, Oscar winning composer Hans Zimmer has officially announced that he will no longer score superhero films, with "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" being the last of the genre he'll ever compose.

"This one was very hard for me to do, to try to find new language," he says.

In his massive career, he composed the soundtracks for films like "The Lion King", "The Dark Knight Trilogy", "Man of Steel", "Inception", "Interstellar", "Sherlock Holmes", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "The Last Samurai", "The Thin Red Line" and countless others.

As an aspiring film director, he's one of the great people that I am dying to work with. The "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" might be the greatest superhero soundtrack ever composed so Zimmer definitely went out with a bang if this is indeed the last superhero film he'll compose.

Can't wait to hear more of your music, Mr. Zimmer.
