The Wolverine Composer Will Now Score Hugh Jackman's Logan

With its release just a few short months away, a new composer has been brought aboard.

Back in July, it was announced that Cliff Martinez — the film composer that scored Neon Demon, War Dogs, Drive, The Lincoln Lawyer, and Contagion — signed on to score James Mangold's Logan. However, now the director has revealed that Martinez is no longer scoring the film and has already been replaced.

So, who's the film's new composer? It's Marco Beltrami, who previously scored Mangold's 3:10 to Yuma (2007) — which earned him his first Oscar-nomination — and The Wolverine (2013). He also composed the scores for Mimic (1997), The Faculty (1998), Resident Evil (2002), and The Hurt Locker (2008).

The film stars Hugh Jackman (X-Men: Days of Future Past) as Logan/Wolverine and Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: The Next Generation) as Charles Xavier/Professor X. The cast also includes Boyd Holbrook (Gone Girl), Richard E. Grant (Game of Thrones), Stephen Merchant (Movie 43), Eriq La Salle (ER), Elise Neal (Scream 2), Elizabeth Rodriguez (Orange is the New Black), and Dafne Keen (The Refugees).

The film is being directed by James Mangold (The Wolverine), based on a script by Michael Green (American Gods) and David James Kelly (Mind Mgmt).

Logan opens in theaters on March 3, 2017.
