Rahman composing for Bond film?

Post by Blowfeld »

Is there no stopping this musical genius? Rumour has it that Rahman has been approached to compose music for the next installment of the James Bond saga.

Directed by Sam Mendes this film is already in the news as the hunt for the Bond girl gets closer. The grapevine suggests that Freida Pinto who shot to fame as Latika in Slumdog Millionaire had been approached. She however, has recently said that she is too young to plan the part.

But as far as Rahman is concerned, his career only seems to be getting more and more illustrious. The latest Bond film is set to be filmed in the Asian sub continent and therefore approaching someone like A R Rahman would make sense.

Anyone other than David Arnold would be a welcome choice.
