Clint Mansell Replaced By Chris Bacon on ‘Source Code’
Posted on Wednesday, December 15th, 2010 by Peter Sciretta
Clint Mansell is one of my favorite film composers working today, and has been since hearing his first work on Darren Aronofsky’s Pi. His incredible score for Requiem for a Dream has been re-purposed in countless trailers and commercials over the years. He has continued to work on Aronofsky’s projects over the years and his Tchaikovsky-inspired score for Black Swan is nothing less than brilliant.
Mansell’s work on Duncan Jones’ feature big screen debut Moon was met with acclaim as well, and I was very excited to hear what Clint had up his sleeves for his second Jones collaboration, on the film Source Code. I had even heard a bit of early music Mansell created for the opening credits while on a visit to the editing room. But it appears that it was not meant to be. Clint Mansell will not be scoring Source Code after all.
