MTV Splash recently sat down with legendary film composer Hans Zimmer, who spoke about scoring the recent Batman movies. The interesting thing is where he would like to take the third score and would love to score the Ridder?

Zimmer said it might also take “Batman” fans until the third film to fully comprehend his scores, which have been laying breadcrumbs throughout that follow along with Bruce Wayne’s storyline.

“Yes, absolutely,” he explained. “When you think about it, Batman ended up in a bad place in the last one; I’m hoping that his character will get a couple new things added to it.”

“Once I knew [the ‘Dark Knight’ villain] was The Joker, I started to get a sense of what it could be, more than what it shouldn’t be,” he explained, saying that Nolan usually gives him a villain heads-up early on in the decision-making process. “Chris and I have this interesting way of getting together, throwing ideas around causally, and then slowly one little Lego piece comes together and another falls off and another comes together.”

Recently nominated for another Oscar for “Sherlock Holmes,” Zimmer is hard at work on several upcoming movies for the likes of James L. Brooks and others. But he’s also keeping a close eye on “Batman 3” rumors, and hoping Nolan sees fit to let him create a playful, sinister score for The Riddler.

“He’s a character that gives you ideas,” Zimmer said of the green-clad baddie. “Maybe I should talk to Chris about that.”
