Ed Shearmur is writing the score for the upcoming family adventure comedy Furry Vengeance for Summit Entertainment. The movie starring Brendan Fraser, Ken Jeong and Brooke Shields is directed by Roger Kumble. Shearmur and Kumble previously worked together on Cruel Intentions, The Sweetest Thing and College Road Trip. In the movie, Fraser plays a real estate developer whose new housing subdivision faces a unique group of protesters, local woodland creatures who don’t want their homes disturbed. Furry Vengeance is scheduled to be released on April 30.
Shearmur’s music can currently be heard in theaters in The Wolfman where he received an additional music credit alongside main composer Danny Elfman. Also coming out this year is the Shearmur scored Mother and Child which premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last September and has been picked up by Sony Pictures Classics for a domestic release this May. Mother and Child stars Naomi Watts and Samuel L. Jackson and is directed by Rodrigo Garcia (Nine Lives, Passengers).
