MovieScore Magazine has confirmed that Howard Shore will be doing the score for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. You can read their official announcement on MovieScore here!
Shore is best known for composing the score of the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy, and he is scheduled to begin work on the Eclipse score next week.
Howard Shore is on board to compose the original score for the third film in the Twilight series, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Temple Hill Entertainment today confirmed to MovieScore Magazine that the Lord of the Rings composer is going to write the music for the film, following in the footsteps of Carter Burwell (who scored the first film in 2008) and Alexandre Desplat (who wrote the music for the second, New Moon). Shore has begun work, spotting the movie, this week.
This is pretty amazing, he did the score for LOTR- one of the biggest movie sagas ever. Are you excited about this? Share your thoughts in the comments!

I'm really excited about this !!!
I'm excited too, Howard Shore is a big name.
Yay…? I'm sorry- I guess i just know who that is. lol
Is it a good thing?
yyayy! I like it! =D can wait to listen to his work and also the movie soundtracks!!! =D
Oh should be good, I heard he did The Lord of the Rings! Good stuff!
I'm SO excited about this!!! LotR was my all time favorite score!!!
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES SO EXCITED DUDE YES.
yea!!! Shore is a very good composer and I think the score will be awesome!! oh and i have a question if anyone knows the answer. does twilight premiere tomorrow on showtime?
Yea it's tomorrow, here's a link with the info http://bit.ly/4w833k
I'm curious to see how Howard Shore handles Eclipse. Unlike a few others fans, I loved Desplat's work on New Moon, which was far more sweeping and elegant than the compositions for the Twilight movie. Volturi Waltz is still one of my absolute favorites.
Still, this is incredible news. Shore has also provided the score for classics such as The Silence of the Lambs and two Martin Scorsese films: The Departed and The Aviator.
Wow!!! This will be good!!! Can’t wait to buy it!!! =^)
Im so excited about this, I loved the LOTR movies and the scores for them. I have complete confidence that the music is gonna be great for eclipse.
i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!! and i dont like lord of the rings that was a long and very stupped movie……..i cant wait for the eclipse movie to comes out!!!!!!
what? stupid? the books are some of the best books in the English language, and the movies are some of the best movies of all time
Lord of the Rings long and stupid??? Please save the world from stupid posts like this. LOTR is one of the greatest trilogys of all time. It is beyond amazing that Howard Shore will score Eclipse. Now I really can't wait till June 30th
Cool- I only hope that Shore handles the score more like Burwell and less like Desplat. I found the score of New Moon irritating at times when the music would swell up too loudly and overwhelm a few key scenes. Especially the Bella/Edward scene at the end. And the weird electric guitar situation when Jasper is about to lunge for Bella is a little much. But hurrah for Eclipse!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omg this is amazing! im sooo excited! I love the job he did on the score for The Lord of the Rings
Dude! This is AWESOME! I loved his score for all the Lord of the Rings Movies! This is so FREAKIN COOL!!!
Woot! Can't wait to see how this comes out. Please no opera! (no idea why each soundtrack has at least 1 opera song xD)
I really can't believe it- his work is always beautiful and I now seriously can't wait for Eclipse!
HOLY FRIGGIN' HELL!!!!!!
Howard Shore is a freaking legend. He's the top played artist on my iPod.
Since 2001, when LOTR came out, he's been a HUGE part of my life.
He's incredible, and his music is phenomenal!
How flipping awesome is this!!!!!!!!! I literally cannot wait.
