Fans of the Caped Crusader may hear something different by the time they watch "The Dark Knight" in theaters nearby.
An exclusive report brought in by Superhero Hype! has earned statement from composer Hans Zimmer saying he is working on a new Batman theme for the highly-anticipated project, which will be the second installment in the revitalized superhero franchise.
"There is a big Batman theme which I was playing with for the last one", Zimmer told the site, "but I always felt the character hadn't earned it yet, so I just want to go and play around, and I now want to go and complete that theme, so that's part of the idea. I felt I had a good start, and now it would be really nice to develop that world a little further."
Set to open on July 18, 2008 in theaters nationwide under Warner Bros. Pictures banner, "Knight" this time finds our hero teaming up with Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent to dismantle the remaining criminal organizations that plague the city streets. Though the partnership proves to be effective, they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker.
