Hans Zimmer has been tapped to compose the title theme for History’s upcoming mini-series Sons of Liberty. The show is created by Stephen David (The Men Who Built America, The World Wars) & David C. White and stars Ben Barnes, Henry Thomas, Michael Raymond James, Rafe Spall, Ryan Eggold, Marton Csokas, Emily Berrington and Dean Norris. The series follows a defiant and radical group of young men – John Adams, Sam Adams, Paul Revere, John Hancock and Joseph Warren – as they band together in secrecy to change the course of history and make America a nation. Kari Skogland (Boardwalk Empire) is directing the six-parter and David is also executive producing the project with Matthew Gross (Across the Universe, Body of Proof), Russ McCarroll and Elaine Frontain Bryant. Zimmer has previously co-scored History’s The Bible. Sons of Liberty is currently in pre-production and is expected to premiere in 2015.

Loved Zimmer’s music for The Bible on History, cannot wait to hear this!!
Do we know if Zimmer is composing all the music for this miniseries? If not, do we know who? If I’ve heard what I think is the theme, then it’s pretty epic.
I absolutely love, love love Sons of Liberty mini-series and it’s Intro Theme by Hans Zimmer!! Will there be a soundtrack release anytime soon? Would love to have one! 🙂
The title theme song sounds a LOT like Centuries by Fall Out Boys — is this the case? Is it just a musical version of Centuries?
