More Eastern Promises. More Howard Shore?

The fine folk at Cinematic report that DAVID CRONENBERG will be making a sequel to EASTERN PROMISES. (I don't know about you, but I'm still recovering from the spa fight from the first film.) It was a sleeper hit film that really didn't get it's due...nor did lead actor Viggo Mortensen. Looks like Mortensen will back with Cronenberg as well as writer Steven Knight, which is great news.

Now the next question that must be asked is, "Will HOWARD SHORE return as well?" Will he have time with all of his Hobbitizing? EASTERN PROMISES was certainly one of the most beautiful scores of 2007, so let's hope he has time for it....however...if you must choose Mr. Shore...stick with the Hobbits. They need you even more.
