Jay 39,596 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Thomas Newman has been confirmed to be scoring Pixar's 2014 movie "The Good Dinosaur", as confirmed by Film Music Reporter, which I am about to quote. But pay attention to the part I boldedThomas Newman revealed at a recent event at Le Moyne and Syracuse University as part of their Film Talk Series (via The Dolphin) that he will be reteaming with Pixar on next year’s animated feature The Good Dinosaur. The movie is directed by Bob Peterson and is set in a world where the cataclysmic asteroid that changed life on Earth missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct. Pixar and Disney Animation’s Chief Creative Officer John Lasseter and John Walker (The Incredibles) are producing the film. Peterson previously co-directed Pixar’s Up, which featured an Academy Award-winning score by Michael Giacchino. Newman has previously scored two animated films for Pixar, Finding Nemo and Wall-E, both directed by Andrew Stanton. The composer received Oscar nominations for both scores. The Good Dinosaur is set to be released on May 30, 2014 by Walt Disney Pictures. Newman also has another major studio film coming out later this year, which will be announced on this site within the next few months. http://filmmusicreporter.com/2013/03/15/thomas-newman-to-score-pixars-the-good-dinosaur/ What the heck is the other major film he is scoring this year?

Koray Savas 2,254 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I'm sure Tyler Bates will return. He just did God Of War: Ascension after all, and obviously because of his 300 score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do expect Burwell to go for Fifth Estate and Saving Mr. Banks, but Condon has switched composers before. I also expect Clinton Shorter to do Elysium too, but he hasn't been announced yet.I'm just tossing out movies that don't have composers officially attached... at the moment.

Jay 39,596 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Well, it'd be funny if he scored a dinosaur movie and a Pixar movie in the summer, and then a Pixar Dinosaur movie in the fall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max 147 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Pete Sohn is the new director on The Good Dinosaur, and Sohn and Giacchino worked together on Partly Cloudy (the short before Up), so it could possibly happen! Though, after four big scores in the first half of 2015, I could see Giacchino wanting to take a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 39,596 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Well, he was basically done with Jupiter Ascending before the year started. Inside Out is being recorded right now, or is already recorded Now he's got about 3 months to finish (start?) both Tomorrowland and Jurassic World. Pretty Intense! The Good Dinosaur is a half a year away from those two films, though. Plenty of time to take even 2 months off then tackle it. But we're just speculating - for all we know, Thomas Newman is still on it. The only reason he might not be, is if the film is not yet in a state where it can be spotted, meaning he would have to write closer to the release date, and since that conflicts with SPECTRE, maybe he had to back out. Giacchino has no conflicts (especially since MI5 got pushed up from Dec to July, of course Kraemer got the gig anyway now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 5,238 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Inside Out is being recorded right now, or is already recordedNow he's got about 3 months to finish (start?) both Tomorrowland and Jurassic World. Pretty Intense!Inside Out was recorded in November 2014. A pick-up session for end credits and some rescore was held last month.Giacchino also tweeted/instagram'd pics from the Tomorrowland sessions last January if I'm not mistaken, so that's likely already in the can as well.The Good Dinosaur has been completely overhauled in production, with new script, new creativity and new director, so I wouldn't be surprised if Tom Newman left the project (scheduling conflict with Spectre also might be a factor, as you pointed out) and Giacchino will step in as replacement.

Muad'Dib 1,871 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I want someone different than the usual Pixar composers; heck even Dreamworks is branching out of just RC composers- they could give Doyle another chance.

And the first sessions for Tomorrowland were back in October/November, so that has been done/almost done for a while, too.I would absolutely love for Giacchino to score a later 2015 film, be it The Good Dinosaur or another film, but if he was doing another 2015 film, I feel like we would have heard about it by now.

Jay 39,596 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Scrolling back through MG's twitter, It looks like Tomorrowland was spotted on June 17 2014 https://twitter.com/m_giacchino/status/479022212666904576 https://twitter.com/BradBirdA113/status/479021704014864384 On Sep 4 he said he'll be working on Inside Out and Tomorrowland in November https://twitter.com/m_giacchino/status/507753006679334912 Sep 25 he posted a pic from the recording sessions of Tomorrowland. I think I just figured it was a trailer cue at the time https://twitter.com/m_giacchino/status/515234417388695552 Then Feb 12 2014 he tweeted pics from Inside Out recording sessions https://twitter.com/m_giacchino/status/565954306273062912 So yea, looks like Tomorrowland is more done than not done, probably.
