Sony Classical will release a soundtrack album for the ITV mini-series Tutankhamun. The album features selections from the show’s original music composed by Christian Henson (The Devil’s Double, Triangle, Severance, Sinbad, Black Death, Wild Bill). The soundtrack will be released digitally overseas on October 14, 2016. Tutankhamun is directed by Peter Webber (The Girl with the Pearl Earring, Hannibal Rising), written by Guy Burt (Jekyll and Hyde, The Borgias) and stars Max Irons, Sam Neill, Catherine Steadman, Amy Wren, Jonathan Aris and Rupert Vansittart. The 4-parter tells the story of Howard Carter’s discovery of the tomb of one of Ancient Egypt’s forgotten pharaohs, the boy-king Tutankhamun. The mini-series will premiere in the UK this fall on ITV.
