Prolific composer Danny Elfman (BATMAN, EDWARD SCISSORHANDS, HULK) talked to Coming Soon/Superhero Hype! about his work on the upcoming flicks, WANTED and HELLBOY II.
CS/SHH!: Was "Wanted," which has much edgier music, more fun?
Elfman: Well, they are each fun in a different way. "Hellboy" was a little more romantic and traditional, but I love paying homage to Bernard Herrmann, who for me is my master. Any time I get to do that it's a great joy. "Wanted" is like a whole other ballgame. I did a whole different thing: more synthesizers, percussion, and guitars. I had my guitar out. I was so glad that the two of them were so different.
