Pharrell and Hans Zimmer To Supervise Music on the Academy Awards



A proven jack of all trades, Pharrell can now add ‘music supervisor’ to his resume. Together with Hans Zimmer, who scored films like ‘The Lion King,’ ‘Inception,’ and the ‘Batman’ movies, he will be supervising the music for the upcoming 2012 Academy Awards. The two previously worked together on the soundtrack for ‘Despicable Me,’ and will now serve as musical consultants for the ceremony. According to BBC, “Oscarcast producers Brian Grazer and Don Mischer were looking for an opportunity to inject music into the program that touches on Zimmer’s classical flair, and the hip hop, R&B and pop sensibilities that Williams is known for.”
Watching on February 26
