Pharrell to team up with Hans Zimmer for 'Amazing Spider-Man 2' score

Pharrell Williams is on a serious winning streak.
Not only did the hip-hop super-producer provide listeners with two of the biggest singles of the year (Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky”), he also helped score the blockbuster kids’ movie Despicable Me 2.
That project hooked Pharrell up with an unlikely collaborator: legendary film composer Hans Zimmer.
Zimmer is best known for his bombastic scores for Christopher Nolan films like Inception and the Dark Knight trilogy. He also recently penned the haunting score for Oscar frontrunner 12 Years a Slave.
Zimmer and Pharrell will now be working side-by-side on the soundtrack to the highly anticipated Marvel epic The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which stars Andrew Garfield in the title role and Jamie Foxx as his adversary.
“Hans Zimmer is like the king of all kings. I carry his books, sharpen his pencils, get his coffee, and I listen to every punctuation that comes out of his mouth. He is a genius,” tweeted Pharrell about their collaboration.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters in the summer of 2014.
