2 composers for 'Batman Begins' and new pics

 Posted by:
The Hollywood Reporter says, that James Newton Howard and Hans Zimmer, two of the film industry's most prominent composers, are in discussions to collaborate on Warner Bros. Pictures' "Batman Begins," which Christopher Nolan is directing.
While it is not uncommon for multiple composers to write the score for a movie, those efforts are not typically collaborative. In this case, longtime friends Zimmer (Gladiator, Hannibal) and Howard (Collateral, The Sixth Sense) are looking to join forces.

A spokeswoman for Howard confirmed that the co-composing plan for "Batman" is "very likely to happen" but that exact plans will be formalized "closer toward January," with scoring set to begin "in April or May." A spokesman for Zimmer would not comment on the possibility of the collaboration, saying only that "Batman" is a sensitive project and the composers' "schedules are hectic." "Batman," starring Christian Bale, is scheduled to be released domestically June 17.
