- THE AVENGERS TUNING INTO CAPTAIN AMERICA
Alan Silvestri is now officially announced as the composer
for Marvel's The Avengers. Marvel.com posted the news today, welcoming
Silvestri back to their cinematic universe.
"I think to have been a part of the Marvel process is
very helpful," says Silvestri, who previously scored Captain America: The
First Avenger. "To see how material evolves [and] how the film evolves
gives the sense of how Marvel treats their characters, cares for them, and a
bit of what that Marvel post-production process feels like."
The key challenge for Silvestri this time around is to move from
one big screen hero to a whole team, representing the entire cast musically.
"This is actually a very unique experience [for
me]," he continues. "I've worked on films where there have been a
number of stars and certainly worked on films where there have been characters
of equal weight in terms of their level of importance and profile in the film,
but this one is somewhat extreme in that regard because each of these
characters has their own world and it's a very different situation... It's very
challenging to look for a way to give everyone the weight and consideration
they need, but at the same time the film is really about the coming together of
these characters, which implies that there is this entity called the Avengers
which really has to be representative of all of them together."
Continuing the epic big-screen adventures started in Iron
Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor and Captain America: The First
Avenger, Marvel's The Avengers has the world's greatest Super Heroes assembling
to pull the world back from the brink of disaster when an unexpected enemy
threatens global security.
Written and directed by Joss Whedon, the film stars Robert
Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson,
Jeremy Renner, Tom Hiddleston, Stellan SkarsgÄrd and Samuel L. Jackson. It
opens in theaters on May 4, 2012.
