Michael Brook (The Fighter, Into the Wild) has recently co-written the music for the upcoming romantic drama The Vow. As reported last year, Rachel Portman has also been working on the project. The movie starring Rachel McAdams, Channing Tatum, Sam Neill, Scott Speedman, Wendy Crewson and Jessica Lange centers on a newlywed couple that recovers from a car accident that puts the wife in a coma. Waking up with severe memory loss, her husband endeavors to win her heart again. The film is directed by Michael Suscy who worked with Portman on the Emmy-winning drama Grey Gardens. Gary Barber, Roger Birnbaum, Jonathan Glickman and Paul Taublieb are producing The Vow. Screen Gems has set a release date for the drama on February 10, 2012.

Brook’s upcoming projects includes the football documentary Undefeated, which the Weinstein Company will be releasing in the US. Portman’s upcoming movies include the romantic comedy I Don’t Know How She Does It starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Lorne Scherfig’s romance One Day starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, the drama Bel Ami starring Robert Pattinson and the drama Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, which is coming out next weekend.
Portman recorded her score a few months ago; she’s already done. This is more of a “he’s placing some of it”, until at some point — which will come, they simply replace ALL of it.
