Confirmed: Alexandre Desplat to compose Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1
Early this morning we reported a rumor claiming composer Alexandre Desplat was to score Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1.
We've looked into the matter, and after speaking with the folks who originally reported the story on Film Score Monthly, we now know that this piece of info is confirmed by Desplat's agent.
Desplat has composed such recent films as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Julie & Julia, The Golden Compass, and The Twilight Saga: New Moon.
No word yet on who will compose Deathly Hallows, Part 2. What do you think of Desplat getting the reigns for Part 1?
