WaterTower Music will be releasing the soundtrack album for the drama Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, which marks the last major movie of the year for which no soundtrack announcement had been made yet (visit our upcoming soundtracks section for a full listing of the soundtracks coming out in the next couple of weeks). The album includes the original score from the movie composed and conducted by Alexandre Desplat and will be released on January 17, 2011. The composer recently finished recording around 80 minutes of music that he wrote in less than one month after coming in as a replacement for Nico Muhly. Check back on this page for the full details and audio clips of the soundtrack within the next couple of weeks. Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close directed by Stephen Daldry stars Tom Hanks, Sandra Bullock, Thomas Horn, John Goodman, Viola Davis, Jeffrey Wright and Max von Sydow. Warner Bros Pictures will release the film on December 25, 2011. For more information, visit the official movie website.
