Danny Elfman does his own twist on straight action scoring with Wanted, the upcoming action film from Russian director Timur Bekmambetov (Nightwatch). A mix of insistent string writing, rollicking percussion, arching brass, and electric guitar, Wanted welcomes Elfman back to scoring summer blockbusters. Top off forty-five minutes of thrilling score with an original rock song written and performed by Danny Elfman (”The Little Things”) and you’ll know an Elfman fan on the street, as they’re the ones with the gigantic grins.

Cinemusic is pleased to present this soundtrack preview, in association with Danny Elfman’s Music For A Darkened People and Lakeshore Records, with six clips from the album due in stores and iTunes on June 24th.
