FROM THE DIRECTOR OF MR. & MRS. SMITH AND THE BOURNE
IDENTITY COMES JUMPER
LAKESHORE RECORDS RELEASES THE SOUNDTRACK FOR
JUMPER, COMPOSED BY JOHN POWELL
(January 28, 2008- Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore
Records will release the original motion picture
soundtrack for JUMPER on iTunes February 12th and in
stores on February 19th. The album features original
music by John Powell (UNITED 93, SHREK).
Composer John Powell has written music for animated
films (HAPPY FEET, SHREK, ICE AGE: THE MELTDOWN) and
comedies (PLUTO NASH, ALFIE, MR. 3000) but is probably
best known for his work in the action film genre on
such films as MR. AND MRS. SMITH, X-MEN: THE LAST
STAND, FACE/OFF, THE ITALIAN JOB, and the BOURNE
series of films (THE BOURNE IDENTITY, THE BOURNE
SUPREMACY, THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM). Powell’s work on
these action scores seamlessly blends orchestral and
electronic elements.
The British born Powell began originally trained as a
violinist. In 1995 he founded a London based
commercial music house before moving to the United
States 2 years later. He is one of the best known
former members of the Remote Control (formerly Media
Ventures) team of composers, where he first teamed
with Harry Gregson-Williams, his collaborator on
several scores (ANTZ, CHICKEN RUN, SHREK).
From the director of MR. & MRS. SMITH and THE BOURNE
IDENTITY, Doug Liman, comes JUMPER. A genetic anomaly
allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He
discovers this gift has existed for centuries, and
finds himself in a war that has been raging for
thousands of years between “jumpers” and those who
have sworn to kill them. The film stars Hayden
Christensen, Samuel L. Jackson, and Diane Lane, based
on the novels by Steven Gould.
Regency and 20th Century Fox present JUMPER, in
theaters on February 15. The Lakeshore Records
recording will be available on iTunes on February 12,
2008 and in stores on February 19, 2008.
