Marco Beltrami recently finished working on the score for the HBO movie The Sunset Limited. The movie is based on the Cormac McCarthy (No Country For Old Men, The Road) novel and stars Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson. The project reunites director Tommy Lee Jones with Beltrami who previously collaborated on The Three Burials of Melquiadas Estrada and will premiere on HBO later this year. Beltrami also has the Sci-Fi thriller Repo Men coming up next month and finished the score to the Wes Craven directed horror movie My Soul To Take a while ago. He is currently working on the Guillermo del Toro produced horror thriller Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark, which should be released later this year.
