Roque Banos is reuniting with director Fede Alvarez on the upcoming thriller The Girl in the Spider’s Web. The film stars Claire Foy, alongside Sverrir Gudnason, Sylvia Hoeks, Claes Bang, Lakeith Stanfield, Vicky Krieps, Synnove Macody Lund and Stephen Merchant. The movie is the sequel to David Fincher’s 2011 feature The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (scored by Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross) and follows Lisbeth Salander and journalist Mikael Blomkvist as they find themselves caught in a web of spies, cyber criminals and corrupt government officials. Steven Knight (Dirty Pretty Things, Eastern Promises, Locke) wrote the screenplay with Alvarez & Jay Fasu based on David Lagercrantz’s bestseller. Scott Rudin (The Social Network, No Country for Old Men), Amy Pascal (The Post, Spider-Man: Homecoming) and Elizabeth Cantillon (Concussion) are producing the project. Banos has previously scored Alvarez’s first two features, Don’t Breathe and Evil Dead. The Girl in the Spider’s Web is set to be released on November 9, 2018 by Sony Pictures.
Banos’ other recent projects include Terry Gilliam’s The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, which is premiering this week at the Cannes Film Festival, The Miracle Season, which is currently playing in theaters, and the Spanish comedy Yucatan, which will be opening in Spanish theaters this summer.
