Man of Steel

Warner Bros.' Man of Steel is about to get another boost from Christopher Nolan's Batman crew. Hans Zimmer, who scored The Dark Knight as well as Nolan’s other mega hit, Inception, is now set to score Zack Snyder's Superman reboot, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Man of Steel will mark Zimmer's fifth collaboration with Nolan, who is a producer on the film.

Snyder, on the other hand, has always worked with composer Tyler Bates on all of his previous films dating back to Dawn of the Dead and including 300, Watchmen and Sucker Punch.
