NO WAY.
Marianelli should be the one for this project!
According to one source that I trust, Marianelli is out and John Powell is in.

Oh, he recorded score, I just can't say if it was everything.
I was very much looking forward to this score. :-(

Yay, the Peter Pan origin story we've all been craving!
This looks terrible. Marianelli is lucky to be out.

Sadly Marianelli had to go. Who to blame? The corporate body of Warner Brothers. They'd make remarks like "your score is too European". The producers obviously want a lighter, funnier film and thought his score was too dark. Director still supported him. But ultimately with these big studio pictures, the studio has the final say. So bastards really.
Apparently the guy who works on this picture said he wasn't all that surprised, since they had pretty much said it might happen for the last 4 months.
But it doesn't excuse them having worked directly with him, saying they were happy with everything and then turning on him after the screening. If they were unhappy with the musical direction, they should have told him sooner. If only to give the next guy a half chance of writing a decent replacement score.
As regards score, it's like an old school score really. Orchestral, grand, heavy use of brass. A bit more straightforward harmonically than Brothers Grimm. He simplified it quite significantly after the first preview. In an effort to make it less European. Sadly it was never recorded.
As for Marianelli, he's pretty pissed off.
I don't envy Powell really, as he has a hell of a mountain to climb because the recording sessions are in 5 weeks time!

daretodream,
Is what you wrote creative speculation informed by a few disparate details or do you have inside knowledge of this situation? Reads like the latter but I can't really tell. The scenario you presented, in either case, certainly rings true.
And if you indeed are close to whatever source you're citing, by "not recorded" do you mean that the preview was tracked with synth mock-ups?
Yeah, a friend of mine has been working (and still is) since the project started. Yep, it was tracked with synth mock-ups. I have heard a bit, but that's because I was assisting him at one point. I didn't really hear the whole score, only fragments really.
I am sure he has been compensated and all, but I know that Dario has been working very had on this project.
It's sad that they chose to replace him, instead of giving him another chance. Nope, they'd rather fire him. Typical.
