X-Men: First Class Soundtrack

X MEN: FIRST CLASS, the latest installment of the blockbuster cult series, is one of the most anticipated films of the year. Henry Jackman is scoring what will easily be the biggest film of their careers for both him and director Matthew Vaughn (KICK-ASS, STARDUST). Jackman worked with Hans Zimmer on THE DARK KNIGHT (Grammy Award-winner) and scored MONSTERS VS ALIENS, as well as GULLIVERS TRAVELS.

Composer Henry Jackman's dizzying main theme for director Matthew Vaughn's 2011 reboot of the X-Men franchise is built on a heroic, circular melody that spins throughout X-Men: First Class like a dust devil, growing more and more confident with each new instance. In a nod to Daft Punk's excellent work on Tron Legacy, Jackman, who worked with Vaughn before on 2010's everyman superhero spoof Kick Ass, dutifully applies his significant programming and production skills on the punishing "Magneto" theme, and the inclusion of tasteful electric guitars into some of the more orchestral sections brings to mind Hanz Zimmer's Inception score. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
