Radiohead, Kings Of Leon to do Twilight sequel soundtrack?
Director says both acts are in line to contribute
Thom Yorke is in line to provide the soundtrack to the upcoming sequel to ‘Twilight’, says the movie’s director.
Chris Weitz told Rotten Tomatoes that Yorke has expressed interest in writing the music for ‘New Moon’, and also that Kings Of Leon will possibly contribute:
“Fortunately, I’m not at the stage where I have to turn anybody down yet, because everything is still kind of up in the air, but I am surprised at some of the bands that have said they’re interested,” Weitz said. “It’s kind of great. The criterion will still always be what’s right for the movie at that given moment, but Thom Yorke is interested; we might, if we’re very lucky, get Kings Of Leon to do something… it’s exciting to be able to have access to this kind of talent.”
Radiohead’s ’15 Step’ featured in the closing credits of ‘Twilight’.
