Aquaman: 10 Reasons To Be Excited

Now while trailer music doesn't always represent a film's score/style, the use of orchestral and synth music in the recent extended trailer helped the video soar. That mix of heart-pounding orchestral music that Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL established in Man Of Steel and BvS combined with a bit of synth to establish Aquaman's unique style.

Easily one of the DCU's greatest strengths has been the scores within each installment, consistently elevating the material and visuals to greater heights. And this isn't even Rupert Gregson-Williams first gig with a DC movie, as he took on composing duties with 2017's Wonder Woman. Gregson-Williams will be responsible for establishing the world of Atlantis and Arthur Curry musically, which is a challenging task that they'll surely be able to handle.

Although not many tend to focus on scores, they're incredibly important for establishing atmosphere and effectively complementing the events on-screen. In addition, it's also responsible for subtly setting the framework for the protagonist, antagonist, and support players. Just look at the way WW's main theme didn't play until Diana truly became Wonder Woman during the village rescue, representing her transformation into the superheroine everyone knows. Gregson-Williams pulled it off exceptionally well, and here's hoping he does the superpowered Atlantean rockstar justice.
