Hans Zimmer is the man behind some of cinema’s greatest scores. He will be in one of the top spots in any list of film composers. His huge body of work ranges from Interstellar to Gladiator, from Inception to Rain man and many more. Now, he is adding a much shorter work to the list. 

As Netflix releases more and more of its original productions to the big screen, the famous “ta dum” sound that accompanies the streamer’s logo in the beginning of each movie or show is simply not long enough. So the company hired Zimmer to work his magic and create an extended version of it. The result is a 16 second long, much more dramatic intro.

Netflix has a somewhat shaky relationship with theater chains. It sometimes releases its movies to the theaters before putting it on the streaming service to ensure they will be eligible for an Oscar nomination. This strategy has paid off with movies like Roma and American Factory getting recognition. The coronavirus pandemic, however, has shifted the balance a bit. Several movies have been released straight to home watching and the academy has decided to allow streaming-only movies to be eligible for an Oscar.

David Attenborough is collaborating with the esteemed film composer Hans Zimmer and the rapper Dave for a new musical special.

The collaboration is for a BBC wildlife special titled Planet Earth: A Celebration. Zimmer has reworked original scores from the Planet Earth II and Blue Planet II documentary series.

Footage from the series will be shown while Dave plays the piano and the BBC Concert Orchestra performs the string section.

“I’ve always been a fan of powerful natural history documentaries,” Dave said in response to the collaboration. “This is a program where nature and music come together, so it was only right that I lent my talent, my time, and my attention to this project. It was a pleasure to work alongside Sir David Attenborough and Hans Zimmer.”

Zimmer also said in a statement: “Working with David on so many of his magnificent programs celebrating nature and our planet has been a joy for me. I am constantly inspired by what he is able to capture, and the collection of sequences featured in Planet Earth: A Celebration is truly special.”

Planet Earth: A Celebration will air on the BBC later this month.
