Music Composed by Academy Award, Golden Globe and Grammy Winning Composer Hans Zimmer!

A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth. As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do. But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.

German-born composer Hans Zimmer is recognized as one of Hollywood’s most innovative musical talents. Zimmer entered the world of film music in London during a long collaboration with famed composer and mentor Stanley Myers‚ which included the film My Beautiful Laundrette. He soon began work on several successful solo projects‚ including the critically acclaimed A World Apart‚ and during these years Zimmer pioneered the use of combining old and new musical technologies. Today‚ this work has earned him the reputation of being the father of integrating the electronic musical world with traditional orchestral arrangements.

In the early ’90s Zimmer cemented his position as a pre-eminent talent with the award-winning score for The Lion King. The soundtrack has sold over 15 million copies to date and earned him an Academy Award for Best Original Score‚ a Golden Globe‚ an American Music Award‚ a Tony and two Grammy Awards. In total‚ Zimmer’s work has been nominated for 7 Golden Globes‚ 7 Grammys and seven Oscars for “Rainman”‚ “Gladiator”‚ “The Lion King”‚ “As good As It Gets”‚ “The Preachers Wife”‚ “The Thin Red Line‚” “The Prince Of Egypt” and “The Last Samurai.”

Some of his other impressive scores include Pearl Harbor‚ The Ring‚ 4 films directed by Ridley Scott; Matchstick Men‚ Hannibal‚ Black Hawk Down and Thelma & Louise‚ Penny Marshall’s Riding In Cars With Boys and A League Of Their Own‚ Quentin Tarantino’s True Romance‚ Tears Of The Sun‚ Ron Howard’s Backdraft‚ Days Of Thunder‚ Smilla’s Sense Of Snow and the animated Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron for which he also co-wrote four of the songs with Bryan Adams‚ including the Golden Globe nominated “Here I Am.”

Zimmer’s additional honors and awards include the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award in Film Composition from the National Board of Review‚ and the Frederick Loewe Award in 2003 at the Palm Springs International Film Festival. He has also received ASCAP’s Henry Mancini Award for Lifetime Achievement.

"The challenges of creating a Superman score are daunting because Superman is so iconographic...I really feel like what Hans created is perfect. Subtle and stirring, epic and commanding. Honestly, Hans crushed it." - Zack Snyder, director of Man Of Steel

"Instead of paying homage to John Williams' celebrated score for Richard Donner's 1978 Superman film, as composer John Ottman did with Bryan Singer's 2006 reboot Superman Returns, Hans Zimmer has crafted an entirely new set of themes for Man of Steel, director Zack Snyder's 2013 re-reboot of the franchise... Man of Steel is grittier and darker than any of its predecessors, due in large part to Zimmer's proclivity for non-stop, thunderous percussion, though it retains enough goose bump-inducing moments to be called a proper Superman score, especially on the elegiac 'Look to the Stars' and its soaring counterpart (pun intended) 'What Are You Going to Do When You Are Not Saving the World?,' both of which dutifully reflect the iconic superhero's propensity for both goodness and might." - James Christopher Monger, allmusic.com, Rated 3.5/5

"Here's how committed composer Hans Zimmer was to crafting a truly original score for the new Superman movie Man of Steel: He didn't listen to John Williams, one of his all-time favorites, for a year... Zimmer's Man of Steel score for director Zack Snyder is powerful and dynamic, like Mahler with a synthesizer and the occasional pedal steel guitar, yet also modest in key musical sequences — to underscore the iconic superhero being an alien raised in the rural Midwest and becoming America's greatest champion." - Brian Truitt, USA Today

"The first thing I did was leave out the trumpet. If I take away some of the vocabulary that John used, I'm already going to be different. It's not about being different for the sake of being different, it's about what's appropriate for this movie. Look, I think this is a very different film from 'Superman.' I think this is a very different film from even what people even expect. One of the things I noticed was that when the third trailer came out -- the one that had my music in it -- people started to realize that it was a different type of movie. The comments got a bit more soulful and thoughtful in a way. People saw we weren't being cheap and cashing in on something, but that we were actually putting some heart into this thing." - Hans Zimmer
