The Gorfaine/Schwartz agency has confirmed that Marcelo Zarvos will score the Jodie Foster-directed comedy drama The Beaver. He is replacing Brian Reitzell, who was originally attached to score the movie according to his agency Evolution Music Partners (also see our news entry). In the movie, Mel Gibson plays a depressed toy company CEO with a failed marriage starts to wear a beaver puppet on his hand as a form of therapy, much to the initial bemusement of his family. The movie co-stars Jodie Foster and Anton Yelchin. Summit Entertainment will release the film later this year.
