Mychael Danna: Stone of Destiny

Canadian composer Mychael Danna is doing the score for Stone of Destiny, directed by Charles Martin Smith, who previously worked with Danna on The Snow Walker in 2003. Produced by Infinity Features Entertainment in Canada and UK's The Mob Film Company, Stone of Destiny tells the story of Ian Hamilton, a Scottish nationalist who wanted to bring the Stone of Scone back to Scotland from Englan in the 1950s. Robert Carlyle, Kate Mara, Billy Boyd and Charlie Cox star in the film which is due out later this year. Mychael Danna is also teaming up again with Canadian auteur Atom Egoyan, doing the score for his new film Adoration. It's their ninth feature film together (not counting their episode in the 1991 film Montréal vu par...), a drama starring Scott Speedman, Rachel Blanchard and Kenneth Welsh. In addition to these two films, Mychael Danna is also attached to The Time Traveler's Wife and Passchendaele, and is co-writing the scores for Lakeview Terrace and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus with his brother, Jeff Danna.
