Call it music to our ears.
There were many announcements made Saturday during Marvel’s Hall H panel at Comic-Con, but none were more overlooked than Michael Giacchino being added to Marvel’s Fantastic Four reboot.
Despite just dipping his toes into the art of direction with Werewolf By Night, the Academy Award-winner will be doing what he’s most known for: making music.
He has officially been tapped to compose the film’s score. Having composed the score for the all of the MCU Spider-Man films, he’s more than qualified for the job. Given the film’s 1960s setting it will be interesting to see what visionary sound he comes up with this time.
