Jackson has long been considered one of the most successful
actors in Hollywood, having appeared in movies that have grossed $11.7 billion
worldwide including all three "Star Wars" prequels, PIxar Animation's
The Incredibles and both "Iron Man" movies. Reprising his role as
Nick Fury in the summer's biggest blockbuster Marvel's The Avengers has put
Jackson over the top with another $1.4 billion made by that movie alone.
Old Boy is scheduled to start filming in New York and
Louisiana in September, Spike Lee has found an unconventional composer to score
the movie in Bruce Hornsby, the piano-playing songwriter best known for his
1986 hit "The Way It Is."
In a separate interview with the Times, Hornsby told them,
"I'm working on a few things and I'll send them to Spike soon. The 'D'
word (referring to the dark tone) has been spoken to me by him, but I think the
score will also run the gamut."
