Alan Silvestri mentioned in an interview with Nerdist that he is set to reteam with Robert Zemeckis on the director’s upcoming currently untitled World War II spy drama. Brad Pitt and Mario Cotillard are attached to star in the film, which follows an Allied counter-intelligence agent who falls in love with during a dangerous North African mission and is quietly notified that the woman he has married and had a baby with is likely a Nazi spy. Steven Knight (Eastern Promises, Locke, Dirty Pretty Things) has written the screenplay. Zemeckis is also producing the Paramount, New Regency and GK Films production with Graham King (The Departed, Hugo, Rango) and Steve Starkey (Cast Away, Matchstick Men). Silvestri has scored all of Zemeckis’ films over the last 30 years, including such titles as Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Polar Express and most recently, The Walk. The untitled World War II drama is set to start shooting in early 2016. No release date has been announced yet.
