November 3, 2014: Hans Zimmer Will Score Superman But Not Batman

Dawn of Justice Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer has revealed in an interview with ComicBookResources.com that he will only be scoring Superman's sequences in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", leaving Batman to Junkie XL.

    Next, you're doing another superhero film, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, featuring the Superman you've scored before for Man of Steel, and also a character that you've approached before in a different cinematic context, Batman. Are you doing a different take on Batman, or drawing from your established theme, or something else?

    You know something? I have agonized over it. I agonized over it, so much so that finally, I went, I don't want to betray what Chris, James Newton Howard and I did. And so I asked Zack [Snyder] if it would be OK if I called a friend in. And I'm going to be working with Junkie XL, who really is a great friend. He just finished the Mad Max score. I said to him, "You take care of Batman. I'll do the other guy." And Zack loved that idea. It's a way out.
