14: New project:
RENFIELD
Marco
Beltrami has been hired and is set
to record his score for upcoming horror comedy
RENFIELD this weekend. Directed by Chris McKay (The Lego Batman Movie,
Tomorrow War), the film centers on Renfield (Nicholas Hoult),
who has grown sick and tired of
his centuries as Dracula’s
(Nicolas Cage) lackey. The henchman finds a new
lease on life and maybe even
redemption when he falls for feisty, perennially
angry traffic cop Rebecca Quincy (Awkwafina).
Based on the story by Robert Kirkman
(Walking Dead) and screenplay by Ryan Ridley (Community, Rick
and
Morty),
RENFIELD also stars Ben Schwartz, Shohreh Aghdashloo and
Caroline Williams. McKay and Kirman are
also producing the project together with David
Alpert and Bryan & Sean Furst.
Universal Pictures will
release Skybound Entertainment production on April 14,
2023.

New project: SILENT
NIGHT
Marco Beltrami
has been hired to score upcoming action movie SILENT
NIGHT directed
by veteran John Woo. The story
centers on Godlock (Joel Kinnaman), a father on a mission to avenge his young son, who was tragically
caught in the crossfire of gang violence on Christmas
Eve. Catalina Sandino Moreno also stars in the
film as Saya, Godlock’s wife, while Harold Torres will take
on the role of the gang leader, Playa. Robert Archer Lynn wrote
the screenplay, which contains no dialogue. Instead, the film
will rely on the actor’s abilities
to convey meaning and intention through Woo’s
stylized imagery and intense action sequences.
The film will also include new version of
Silent Night arranged and performed by Marco's son Tristan.
You can already listen to this track in its entirety on Marco
Beltrami's Instagram
.
So far no release date has been announced but
the film is expected in 2023.
2022: November 18: MIMIC
reissued without any
upgrade of its content
Varese Sarabande has announced reissue of long-sold out MIMIC: Deluxe
Edition. While the album is supposedly newly remastered from
the first generation masters, this "new" edition includes
identical content as the previous album and repeats all
of its issues (missing not only about 15 minutes of STILL
entirely unreleased music as well as material which was
included on the old 30-minute album yet never made it to
either of these expansions). Good for those who missed the
previous expansion only, the others probably don't need
to
bother with this another wasted opportunity from Varese. Either
way this edition is again limited to 1000 copies only
so won't probably last long.
