All this talk on Meyer's choice for The Undiscovered Country, made me realize we haven't talked about a composer for the new Star Trek TV Show yet.
It'll roll out in January 2017 on the new CBS All Access streaming services.
Star Trek will once again have Meyer in the producers seat with Brian Fuller (Hannibal, American Gods) in the show runners position. Rod Roddenberry will be executive producing. What the story-wise relation will be to the current movie-universe has yet to be undisclosed.
I think it's safe to say that composer Brian Reitzell will have a chance composing the show. I love his eclectic work on Hannibal and enjoy the game score to Red Faction: Armageddon. Hs work might prove an interesting and unique entry in the vast Star Trek musical library.

Obviously, we don't really know much about the show or its tone, but I continue to believe that Brian Tyler is a likely choice, given Alex Kurtzman's involvement (Tyler has been involved in "Scorpion," "Sleepy Hollow," and "Hawaii Five-0," plus the movie "Now You See Me," all Kurtzman productions) and Tyler's previous Trek experience.
In my dream-world I'd love to see Christopher Young or Joseph LoDuca given a shot at this, or at least the theme.
Speaking of the theme, would folk prefer a new iteration of the original Alexander Courage original, or something totally new/fresh? Kind of hard to top both Courage's & Goldsmith's themes, but who knows what the future holds...
