Hunger Games Soundtrack - T-Bone Burnett and Danny Elfman to collaborate

Omigosh the Hunger Games!

T-Bone Burnett and Danny Elfman are collaborating on the soundtrack to be release by Universal Republic.

This is going to be so good. The first film based on the Hunger Games books will be open on March 23, 2012. I'm so excited. This could be the next Harry Potter!

From Billboard:

Universal Republic will release soundtrack and score albums related to "The Hunger Games," the Lionsgate film that T-Bone Burnett and Danny Elfman are collaborating on as composers, Billboard.com has learned. In addition to their instrumental work, Universal Republic will release collections of the songs featured in the film and songs directly influenced by the themes -- freedom, rebellion, survival, family -- and subject matter of the film. Burnett, billed as executive music producer, will oversee all production and will produce many of the individual tracks being recorded by new and established artists. Music for the film is still in the planning stages and releases are expected to coincide with the film's March 23 theatrical release. The film and companion music will feature original recordings, but decision has been made on how many sets will be released.
