AceShowbiz - Here's a new song from the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" soundtrack. With the film's release date approaching, Warner Bros. has released via its WaterTowerMusic Soundcloud page a preview for "Men Are Still Good (The Batman Suite)" which was crafted by Junkie XL.
Junkie XL, whose real name is Tom Holkenborg, was hired along with Hans Zimmer to work together on the film's score. He's enlisted to compose the Batman theme while Zimmer, who was involved in "Man of Steel", handles the Superman music.
"Dawn of Justice" is scheduled to hit U.S. theaters on March 25. The soundtrack will be released a week earlier on March 18.
In anticipation of the movie, the film's director Zack Snyder recently responded to claims that he changed Superman in "Man of Steel". During an appearance on the "Hall of Justice" podcast with Seth Everett, he said that only real fans of the comic book would notice that he was actually staying true to the character.
"I knew that we were really updating a beloved character. I don't think 'changing him' - People are always like, 'You changed Superman.' If you're a comic book fan, you know that I didn't change Superman," he defended the choices he made for the movie. "If you know the true canon, you know that I didn't change Superman. If you're a fan of the old movies, yeah, I changed him a bit."
"I feel like I tried to create a Superman that would set a tone for the world," he continued. "My point is that, if you know anything about the actual characters... what we've done is create a place where they can really be the mythological characters as designed in the comic books. If you're a fan of them in the comic books, you'll get a great opportunity to see what they look like, and how they move, [that] they're real."
