Patrick Doyle: return to Thor?

Patrick Doyle in talks to return to compose THOR: THE DARK WORLD
AICN asks composer Patrick Doyle, responsible for the sound of the first Thor film, if he'll return to compose the sequel, Thor: The Dark World.

Patrick Doyle who composed the first Thor film used many different elements to make a fantastic score. Ain't It Cool's, ScoreKeeper asked him about the sequel and his return.

SK: You have had a really incredible couple years, scoring PLANET OF THE APES (2011), THOR (2011) and then now BRAVE. Is there any talk yet about you being on board for the next PLANET OF THE APES or even the next THOR movie?

PD: Well it’s being discussed at the moment. (Laughs) That’s all I can say. I’m having meetings with the directors, so that’s the hope.

Thor: The Dark World is scheduled to be released on November 8, 2013.

  1. I do hope Patrick Doyle returns to sequels. HIs scores always had great elegance that couldn't be found in other composers' works. But the blog link is no longer working, so here's another link to the same blog if you want: http://jasononthehouse.blogspot.ca/2012/08/the-world-of-modern-film-composers.html
