Tyler Bates Composing Conan The Barbarian

Film Music Reporter has confirmation that Tyler Bates will be co-composing the score for the remake of Conan The Barbarian. His collaborater will be Tim Williams. You may recognize Bates' work in 300, Watchmen and this months release, Sucker Punch. Tyler often uses heavy guitar riffs and grooves to set his scores apart from many composers working today.
I think his style will fit really well with the new version. From images released so far the film looks to be a bit gory and have more of an edge and raw power to it which is tailor-made for Bates.
Marcus Nispel will be directing the August 19th release with Jason Momoa in the lead role.
