In recent interview for SoundWorks Marco Beltrami confirmed he will score upcoming action thriller HITMAN: AGENT 47. Based on the top-selling, award-winning video game franchise, "Agent 47" is an all-new motion picture about an elite and genetically engineered assassin, known only by the last two digits - 47 - of a barcode tattooed on the back of his neck. His latest target is a young woman on the run from powerful and clandestine forces. The mission brings startling revelations about the lethal agent and his prey, hurtling them on a collision course with their pasts. And this time, his number may be up. Rupert Friend, Zachary Quinto, CiarĂ¡n Hinds and Thomas Kretschmann star in the movie directed by Aleksander Bach for 20th Century Fox. HITMAN: AGENT 47 is currently in post-production and will be released on 28th August 2015.

Is this any relation to the previous Hitman movie with Timothy Olyphant?

Nope. Total reboot.

Beltrami being in on the project is encouraging.

any news about the sessions or possible soundtrack album?

Sessions haven't happened yet. Still working on it. Gods of Egypt keeping them very busy too of course.

It's interesting that Gods of Egypt should be recorded rather soon, even though the movie won't get released until April... there is hardly that much time left considering Hitman opens in less than 2 months and the score still needs to be recorded, mixed and delivered and film's final mix hasn't been finished yet and localisation usually takes several weeks as well as distribution of digital copies to cinemas worldwide.

Any ideas when and where it will be recorded? It must be probably during next few weeks....

Jesus, man, calm down.

Here's a tidbit I learned from someone "in the know" regarding the Hitman score. Here's the text, as sent from a friend:

"Hey, don't know if you like that composer Mark Bastrami, but he was down at my gun range last week firing off some rounds into a microphone, said he was recording a soundtrack to some movie. I know you're always complaining about them not using violins anymore, but first I heard of someone firing a machine gun into a microphone and calling it music."

I asked him if the microphone was just recording the sound of the gunfire or what and he said, "Yeah, at first. Then he walked it down to the targets and just blew that thing to smithereens. He had a guy next to him recording the shells hitting the ground with a different microphone, a real big one, but then they both took turns, shot that one to shit, too. Them [sic] him and the other guy with a shaved head picked up most of the pieces and said he was going to take them back and lay them inside a piano he keeps in some abandoned jail. Or maybe it was an old psychiatric hospital, I can't remember. I got some of the pieces from the microphone if you want me to send them to you."

I asked if Beltrami seemed nice, and all he said was, "Yeah, nice guy. Real smart. Before he left, he bought all the silencers I had, even the defective ones that were going back. Said they were for more recording stuff. Left the display model but said he'd be back for it 'after.' When he said 'after' the other guy with him, the bald one, looked at me kinda nervous and said something like, 'Hey Mark, you don't have to do this' and something about using samples instead, but I don't know what he meant. You probably do, you loser. lol"

There's no way he's getting a Silent Assassin rating in this one.

um... what?

In the games you get a rating at the end of each mission depending on how well you performed, with 'Silent Assassin' being the hardest to attain. It involves using stealth to assassinate only your main target without leaving a trace of your presence behind (incapacitating guards rather than killing them, or avoid them altogether, etc.). The whole point of the games is to be as stealthy as possible.

You can choose to gun your way through each level Rambo-style, but this requires no skill and is incredibly boring.

Sadly, with its relentless explosions, helicopter crashes and daylight shootouts in the middle of packed cities, this movie looks very much like the latter.

I am looking forward to Marco Beltrami's score, but I doubt it will have the same effect on me as Jesper Kyd's brilliant music for the games.
