    It may not be a grand scoring opportunity, but I can’t begin to tell you how good it feels to see David Newman on a studio movie again.

    He’s also scoring that “Green Eggs and Ham” series in development. It’s been picked up for thirteen episodes. The agency he is currently with, Allegro Talent Group, reported it on their official Twitter page.
