Post Composer for the next movie

Hi guys,
Is there somebody who you'd like to create the OST for TR2?
Personally, I think Junkie XL did a great job and I wouldn't mind him coming back

James Newton Howard is always on the top of my list for everything.

James Newton Howard would be amazing. He’s really good at writing very touching songs. The Gravel Road (from The Village) and Fairy Dance (from Peter Pan) are amazing.

Junkie XL’s scores are a little too bland for me. Not bad, just not particularly memorable.

Yeah. I want James Newton Howard too. His work in fantastic beast was awesome.

Patrick Doyle or Alexandre Desplat could be great options.

Worth noting if Ben Wheatley signs on to direct we will probably get Clint Mansell scoring.

Clint Mansell is very talented. He is the Darren Aronofsky composer.

We need another composer that takes Junkie XL' score to another level.

I feel like he will do Tomb Raider aswell if Ben signs on to direct. If only because they've now worked together on quite a lot of films big and small.

I love Clint Mansell. ❤️ Wouldn't be his first video game movie he did the awesome Doom soundtrack way back.

John Murphy is also incredible I haven't heard much from him lately.

Wait... Was Clint the legend who created this song https://youtu.be/bbS-Zhz31CA? Are we talking about the same guy?

Well, I am 100% on board of Junkie XL returning, I loved the OST for this movie (one of my favourite of the entire franchise, and much better than anything that came from the reboot games apart from the main theme and SotTR's OST). It's a crime that is was so poorly used during the movie, and the sequel definitely needs a new, better sound mixer/designer.

However, while I would be very disappointed if he didn't return, there are plenty of great composers out there that I wouldn't mind having attached to the movie. I really like the work of Alexandre Desplat, Just as an example.
