Jon Burlingame has an interesting story in Variety about a new "Music for Visual Media" department at super-agency WME. Most of the story is about Amos Newman, son of Randy, whom Ari Emmanuel picked to lead the new department. Zimmer is the highest profile get for Newman so far.
But I know there are a lot of Roque Banos fans here and there is this nugget in there as well:
Spanish composer Roque Banos, a recent WME addition, will be writing one for Ron Howard’s 19th-century shipwreck saga “Heart of the Sea.” Zimmer, who has done five films for Howard, recommended Banos, but as Banos says, “a big part of me doing this score was because Amos was fighting for it.”
Howard creates great opportunities for music with his movies, so I expect a movie from him about a whaling vessel that is destroyed by a sperm whale leaving its crew shipwrecked would be fertile ground for a composer as talented as Banos.

Looking forward to it. Really glad Banos is getting more recognition domestically.
Props to Zimmer for recommending him too!
