NOW YOU SEE ME Get's A Trailer

Chemical Brothers To Score Now You See Me

ThePlaylist is reporting that the British electronic duo The Chemical Brothers will be creating the score for Louis Leterrier's (Incredible Hulk, Clash of The Titans) Now You See Me. The film focuses on a group of illusionists who are playing a game of cat-and-mouse with the FBI as they pull heists during their magic shows. It stars Mark Ruffalo (Avengers), Jesse Eisenberg (Social Network), Morgan Freeman (RED, Dark Knight Rises), Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers), Melanie Laurent (Inglourious Basterds, Beginners), Woody Harrelson (Zombieland), Dave Franco (21 Jump Street) and Common (American Gangster, Wanted).

Most recently the group provided the song Don't Think for Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan which was used in the club scene. This lead to them getting hired by Joe Wright to create the entire score for Hanna which was a highlight soundtrack of 2011. It will be interesting to see if they're able to recreate the intense ambience they were able to with Hanna.

Promo Poster For Louis Leterrier's Now You See Me

The magician heist film from director Louis Leterrier (Unleashed, Incredible Hulk, Clash of The Titans) stars Jesse Eisenberg (Zombieland, Social Network), Melanie Laurent (Inglourious Basterds), Isla Fisher (Burke And Hare), Woody Harrelson (Zombieland), Mark Ruffalo (Avengers, Brothers Bloom) Michael Caine (Inception, Dark Night) and Morgan Freeman (Seven, Dark Knight, Unleashed).

The Four Horsemen, a magic super-group led by the charismatic ATLAS (Jesse Eisenberg), perform a pair of high-tech magic shows, first astonishing audiences by robbing a bank on another continent, and then exposing a white-collar criminal and funneling his millions into the audience members’ bank accounts. 

FBI Special Agent DYLAN (Mark Ruffalo) is determined to make the magicians pay for their crimes—and to stop them before they pull off what promises to be an even more audacious heist. But he’s forced to partner with ALMA (Melanie Laurent), an Interpol detective about whom he is instantly suspicious. Out of desperation he turns to THADDEUS (Morgan Freeman), a famed magic debunker, who claims the bank heist was accomplished using disguises and video trickery. One thing Dylan and Alma agree on is that the Horsemen must have an outside point person, and that finding him (or her) is key to ending the magicians’ crime spree. Could it be Thaddeus? Or Alma? Or could it really be…magic? 

As pressure mounts and the world awaits the Horsemen’s spectacular final trick, Dylan and Alma race to find an answer. But it soon becomes painfully clear that staying one step ahead of these masters of illusion is beyond the skills of any one man—or woman.
