Formula One hires Hollywood composer to write new theme

Author: agencie

LONDON: Formula One has hired the composer of several “Fast and Furious” movies to write a new theme tune for the motor racing organisation. Brian Tyler, an Emmy-nominated American has made music for “Avengers: Age of Ultron”, “Iron Man 3”, “Thor: The Dark World” as well as the “Fast and Furious” franchise, and also wrote theme music for National Football League (NFL) shows. “What an honour to be chosen to compose the Formula 1 theme! This is a life long dream come true as I am a massive #formula1 fan. Thank you #F1!,” Tyler said on his Twitter feed. USA-based Liberty Media took over the global sport in January last year and has set about engaging a younger audience.
