There is one musical contribution to The Dark Knight Rises that clearly demonstrates the
importance of Hans Zimmer as a creative collaborator. It explains why, eight years ago, as a irst
time tentpole ilmmaker, I so needed his help with reinventing Batman. A fresh musical approach
was going to be a key component, but beyond that I needed the help of a master- someone who
had faced such huge odds and emerged unscathed. For me Hans Zimmer was the sound of
contemporary movies and I was delighted when he agreed to talk about the project. I was less
delighted with his initial thoughts - why make the music heroic? Why not play the tragedy and
nobility of the tale, like an Elgar concerto? Fear provided a couple reasons right away, but then I
started to learn the method to Hans’ madness... an unerring ability to hone in on the one thought
that cracks a project open. The darkly romantic, lush score, with its strangely minimalist core
that he and James Newton Howard labored over with such passion brought new ways of tapping
emotion and pathos within the context of relentless action. The sound was fresh, distinctive and
has been mercilessly plundered by every action movie (or at least their trailers) since 2005.
amongst others- Hans sets creative goals for a project higher than you ever thought possible or
practical. He took the same approach with The Dark Knight Rises , crafting a magniicent and totally
unexpected suite for our new villain as we were just starting to shoot. Hans pinpointed our prison
world as the seed of an evil spreading across the world, and we were able to incorporate that notion
into the shooting of the sequences, leaning more and more on the signiicance of the sound of evil
rising. Here you see the essence of Hans’ approach. He is not playing along - his greatest thinking
is not even done to picture - Hans sees through the screen to the dark beating heart of the story and
is faithful to that and only that.
But this is not the contribution to which I was referring.
The musical contribution in The Dark Knight Rises that most clearly demonstrates Hans’ importance
as a creative collaborator is not to be found on this record. He did not write a note of it. It is a
hinge point of the entire ilm and it is the lonely fragile voice of a boy singing the National Anthem
at the center of a massive, crowded football stadium. While we were considering how to stage
this sequence I called Hans to ask what big draw artists we might convince to do a star spangled
cameo. He threw out a few ideas, trying to get into the spirit of the thing. Then called me back a few
minutes later, gently suggesting I might be betraying the spirit of our endeavor. He told me to make
the most instinctive and unconscious connection with the lonely boy at the genesis of our story.
It was the sort of priceless contribution that gives you goosebumps and reveals your dangerous
dependence on a collaborator. I told him I’d think about it.
The score for Batman Begins dominated the direction of blockbuster movie music for everyone
except Hans, who, when we came to revisit Gotham, insisted on moving in a completely different
direction for the crazed, tortured sound of the Joker, and refused to let us put in our favorite cues
from the irst ilm, insisting on pushing further towards a destination that only he could hear.
Hans has sometimes been accused (not within earshot) of taking the long way round, but what
I’ve seen over the last eight years is that you have to take the long way round to ind the new
sound, the new approach. I have never worked with someone so dedicated to the idea that the
real risk is in playing it safe. Hans taught me that you have to pull aggressively in the wrong
direction to discover the possibilities- and that without discovering the possibilities you can never
do anything exceptional. Together with his team of extraordinary collaborators, Lorne and Mel
