According to this, Morricone is writing an original score for Malick's documentary Voyage of Time:

http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/ennio-morricone-reteams-with-terrence-malick-will-score-voyage-of-time-20151020

Haven't seen this reported anywhere else. Very much hope it's true.

I remember a couple of months ago there were reports that he was acting as a music supervisor of some sort (but not apparently writing original music) for Malick's Weightless.

This film is my most anticipated film!!
I honestly thought Malick would use a pot-pouri of classical music like he did with the creation scene in The tree of Life.

Interesting, and great news. I'm curious now if the sketchy, unverified tidbit about "Weightless" was misinformation as we now have a reliable source for "Voyage" being the new Morricone and Malick's collaboration. Or did a more reliable source other than a zine ever pop up for the "Weightless" connection?

Fantastic news !

After the information about Weightless reusing existing Morricone's music, we have a more exciting assignment.
It is logical that Malick works again with Morricone, we wait for this for at least 25 years ...

Let's hope it will be real. Maybe a short score for this 40-minute documentary ?

Keep reading "Maestro" on chimai.com for further info and comments.

Look for about 10% of what Morricone writes to actually make it into the movie... roll eyes

has anyone heard anything about this?
Since Malick usually cuts to the finished and recorded music and the movie is being postponed for several years, perhaps the score has been completed for a while...

Either way... can't wait to hear it!

I have no idea. Isn't Malick in the middle of shooting?

If what James Horner said of working with Malick, Morricone has my deepest sympathy (I don't think their collaboration on Days of Heaven went quite so smoothly either).

He is already in the post production of his next project, which has been shot after this one... Voyage of Time has been delayed for years and years... hopefully it will be finally finished and released this year... but at least according to IMDB it has been in post production for year and a half now...

If it's anything like "Days of Heaven" it will be worth waiting for.

Malick always takes long, but compared to his production frequency in the past, the last few years he's been Stephen King in comparison.

At least we'll get an excellent CD and an interesting movie with 10.42 minutes of Morricone...

I really would be very curious to see what would John Williams write for my most anticipated film of the last 10 years!
Maybe a new Close Encounters?
I guess we will never find out..

More likely next lincoln... since he basically does exactly the same for any project these days razz

You mean if Williams had scored VOYAGE OF TIME?

Yeah, I'd love to see that, although I don't think he would have fared any "better" than most other big time composers who have worked with him. Eventually, Malick WILL make his own musical edits and picks of things (which I love, btw).

But I wish Williams had kept a link to some of the more edgy directors he worked with in the past. One can only imagine what the Altman/Williams collaboration could have spawned if it had been allowed to develop further, for example. In that respect, a collaboration with someone like Malick would have been intriguing.

AMEN! Altman in particular not only pushed the envelope of cinematic storytelling but pushed his composers too. If the unfortunate circumstances of their split hadn't occurred I would literally be chomping at the bit to hear what Williams would have brought to 3 WOMEN, QUINTET, VINCENT & THEO, SHORT CUTS, THE PLAYER (the only one I think he couldn't top) and GOSFORD PARK? Then my mind drifts to if his Mark Rydell (who into'd him to Altman) relationship had been as religious as Spielberg's what would have INTERSECTION, HARRY & WALTER GO TO NEW YORK, THE ROSE, FOR THE BOYS or even the wonderful ON GOLDEN POND been like under John's baton? THEN my mind boggles if Williams had struck up a partnership with Don Siegel (THE KILLERS) what alternate road THE BEGUILED, DIRTY HARRY, TWO MULES FOR SISTER SARA, CHARLEY VARRICK and THE SHOOTIST would have taken? Which would have brought him to Eastwood. Of all my favorite composers Williams has the most unexplored roads. I really have to praise Oliver stone for taking him off the safe tracks briefly.

True, the mind boggles at such 'alternative history' mind games. Of course, he DID get to work with Eastwood once, on THE EIGER SANCTION -- which just so happens to be my favourite score from an Eastwood movie ever.

Holy crap, the first three pictures:







Can we expect the film to come out later this year?

Apparently the producers didn't want these pictures to be shared because they asked someone on a site to take them down.
