Brian Tyler has been hired to score the horror sequel Final Destination 5. He previously scored the fourth part of the franchise The Final Destination, which was the first one released in 3D and turned out to be the highest grossing entry in the series. Final Destination 5 marks the live action feature directing debut for Steven Quale, who previously co-directed the 2005 documentary Aliens of the Deep alongside James Cameron. The film stars Nicholas D’Agosto, Emma Bell, Tony Todd and David Koechner. The new movie follows the concept of the previous parts and sees a new batch of victims, co-workers on a corporate retreat, escaping the collapse of a city’s suspension bridge. The movie marks Tyler’s second score in the Final Destination series. The late Shirley Walker scored the first three movies. Warner Bros will release the movie, which will once again be released in 3D on August 26, 2011.
