One of the most versatile and respected composers currently working in film, James Newton Howard's career spans 30 years. He has composed music for more than 120 films, including the Academy Award(®)-nominated scores for Defiance, Michael Clayton, The Village, The Fugitive, The Prince of Tides and My Best Friend's Wedding, and Academy Award(®)-nominated songs for Junior and One Fine Day. Howard also received Golden Globe nominations for his massive orchestral score for Peter Jackson's blockbuster King Kong, his provocative symphonic score for Defiance, and his songs from Junior and One Fine Day.
Though his training was classical, Howard always maintained an interest in rock and pop music, and it was his early work in the pop arena that allowed him to hone his talents as a musician, arranger, songwriter and producer. He racked up a string of collaborations in the studio and on the road with some of pop's biggest names, including Elton John; Crosby, Stills & Nash; Barbra Streisand; Earth, Wind and Fire; Bob Seger; Rod Stewart; Toto; Glenn Frey; Diana Ross; Carly Simon; Olivia Newton-John; Randy Newman; Rickie Lee Jones; and Chaka Khan.
For The Huntsman: Winter's War, Howard worked with musical sensation Halsey to arrange her song "Castle" for the big screen, complete with sweeping orchestra and choir. With lyrics such as "I'm headed straight for the castle / they wanna make me their queen," "Castle" was a welcome choice for both the campaign of The Huntsman: Winter's War as well as the film itself. Halsey went from last year's MTV Artist-to-Watch to selling out Madison Square Garden to a Gold-certified debut album, "Badlands" (Astralwerks) in less than seven months. She is currently on a global tour with sold out dates across five continents. The music video for "Castle (The Huntsman: Winter's War Version)" debuted Wednesday on VEVO.
About the Film
Discover the story that came before Snow White in The Huntsman: Winter's War. Chris Hemsworth and Oscar(®) winner Charlize Theron return to their roles from Snow White and the Huntsman, joined by Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain.
Theron stars as evil Queen Ravenna, who betrays her good sister Freya (Blunt) with an unforgivable act, freezing Freya's heart to love and unleashing in her an icy power she never knew she possessed. Retreating to a kingdom far to the north, Freya raises an army of Huntsmen as her protectors, with the only rule that no two of them should ever fall in love.
As a war for domination escalates between the two queens, the hero standing between them is Freya's most elite Huntsman, Eric (Hemsworth). Alongside fellow warrior Sara (Chastain)--the only woman who has ever captured his heart--Eric must help Freya vanquish her sister...or Ravenna's wickedness will rule for eternity.
Producer Joe Roth (Maleficent, Alice in Wonderland) once again leads the team in this breathtaking prequel in the legendary saga that is directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan. This spring, find out who will win the war between good and evil in the epic action-adventure The Huntsman: Winter's War.
