Howard Shore Eclipse

What on earth is the great Oscar winning composer Howard Shore doing, playing with the Twilight Saga? This man brought us the wonderful middle earth music for Jackson’s Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, plus Scorsese’s Gangs of New York, The Aviator, and The Departed, but now he’s going to try to tackle teen angst. According to Movie Score Magazine, Shore is going to write the music for the third installment of the Edward-Bella-Jacob story. You can hear Shore’s music also when Martin Campbell’s thriller Edge of Darkness, starring Mel Gibson, opens this weekend…

Shore’s music would probably the only highlight in ECLIPSE. Carter Burwell scored the first Twilight movie and Alexandre Desplat scored the second installment, New Moon.
Shore has begun work on ECLIPSE this week.

In “Eclipse,” Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob — knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella is confronted with the most important decision of her life.

ECLIPSE opens June 30th, 2010
