WATCHMEN SOUNDTRACK NEWS: MTV NEWS
Now that weve all seen the dazzling first trailer for next years Watchmen flick,
it has officially become my most-anticipated movie of 2009.
And the news just keeps getting better, as director Zack Snyder has revealed exclusively to
MTV News that the only post-1985 song in the film will feature one of todays hottest bands.
My Chemical Romance is absolutely awesome, the 300 director revealed.
And Gerard [Way] is a huge fan of ËœWatchmen.Â
Like the classic graphic novel, Snyders Watchmen film will span the decades utilizing a
Forrest GumpÂ-like soundtrack of period-evocative music from the turbulent Sixties,
the me-decade Seventies and the awesome Eighties. But since the film ends in 1985,
Snyders music needs to be capped after his Hendrix, Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel tracks
have had their moments. Finding a way around the limitation, Snyder has launched plans to
head into the studio with the emo-punk powergroup behind such hits as Helena and
Welcome to the Black Parade.Â
[Frontman Way] is a super-great guy, and an awesome musician, and so were trying to work
with them right now to put together possibly a song for the end titles, he revealed, adding
that he wants MCR to revisit a classic Bob Dylan song. [Theyll perform] like a cover of
Desolation Row, or something like that.Â
The track will close out the film, and will be the only modern composition making up the
movies soundtrack.
Ive talked with him and Ive heard a little bit of some stuff thats hes done, Snyder said
of Ways early attempts to take on Bob Dylan. And its pretty freaking cool.Â
The MCR singer is a lifelong comic book geek who attended the School of Visual Arts in
New York City with plans to join the industry. Comic fans know him as the creator of
The Umbrella Academy, a successful superhero series that hes poured his spare time into recently,
and could possibly be turned into its own movie eventually.
Honestly, he contacted me, just as a fan, Snyder remembered of his first contact with Gerard Way.
[He wanted] to say like: I hope the movies cool. And then we went, Hey, maybe we can do something.Â
So its worked out pretty cool.Â
For now, Snyder and Way will continue working on the Dylan cover for the films end titles;
in the meantime, however, the director said hes still being surprised every day as celebrities come out
of the woodwork revealing themselves to be fans of the 20-year-old Alan Moore-Dave Gibbons classic.
You find out theres a Watchmen geek in there somewhere, like in any organization, he grinned.
Its like a secret government group. You can sneak in by going, Come on, Im a ËœWatchmen fan.Â
