Oscar winner Michael Giacchino has been tapped to compose the original score for the upcoming Overture Films release Let Me In, writer/director Matt Reeves’ English-language adaptation of John Ajvide Lindqvist’s best-selling Swedish novel “Låt den rätte komma in” and the critically-acclaimed film Let the Right One In. The haunting and provocative thriller stars Chloë Moretz (Kick-Ass), Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Road) and Richard Jenkins (The Visitor). Let Me In releases in theaters October 1, 2010.
Giacchino’s work has been nominated twice for an Academy Award – first, for his score to the animated blockbuster Ratatouille, and more recently, for his score to the highly-acclaimed Up for which he won the award in the Best Original Score category. Giacchino’s other notable credits include the score for ABC’s hit shows “Lost” and “Alias,” as well as the feature films Star Trek, Land of the Lost, The Incredibles, Mission: Impossible III, and Speed Racer.
