- Rolfe Kent vertont �Mr. Popper�s Penguins�

[horner1980]

Wie im Film Music Reporter nun bekannt ist, schreibt Rolfe Kent den Score zur neuen Komödie

‘Mr. Popper’s Penguins’ mit Jim Carrey.

Rolfe Kent is currently scoring the upcoming family comedy Mr. Popper’s Penguins. The movie is an adaptation of the beloved 1938 children’s book and stars Jim Carrey, Carla Gugino, Madeline Carroll and Angela Lansbury. The film centers on a New York business man who suddenly inherits six penguins and must find out that taking care of the animals is no easy matter as he quickly hits major hurtles, both at home and at work. Mr. Popper’s Penguins is directed by Mark Waters who has collaborated with Kent on most of his theatrical features (Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Just Like Heaven, Mean Girls, Freaky Friday and The House of Yes), while his last movie The Spiderwick Chronicles featured a score by James Horner. 20th Century Fox has set a June 17, 2011 release date for the movie.

Weiß eigentlich einer, warum Kent nicht auch "Spiderwick" komponiert hat... finds zwar toll, dass dies Horner machte (ist ja einer seiner besten Scores der letzten Jahre), aber würd mich schon interessieren, warum da nicht Kent den Job machte.

Wäre bestimmt mal interessant gewesen, was Kent zu so einen Film geschrieben hätte.
