Tom Holkenborg (a.k.a. Junkie XL) has been busy over the last year. In addition to delivering the magnificent, pulse-pounding music for George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road, he composed the scores for Black Mass, Kill Your Friends, Point Break, and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Holkenborg took to Twitter to announce he is returning to the comic book world with Fox's Deadpool movie.

We will get to hear more of Junkie XL's collaboration with Hans Zimmer on Batman v. Superman in March, but Deadpool opens about a month and a half earlier on February 12.

Do you think Holkenborg is a good choice? Are you excited for Deadpool?

Great news! Loved his work so far, can't wait to hear his BVS score with Zimmer, and now this.

Seems odd to be doing the music now after all the BvS music has been done for awhile now

Damn this guy is busy!

sKeemAn - 10/3/2015, 9:16 PM

Man this guy is putting in work. This is awesome too.

MikeHawk - 10/3/2015, 9:43 PM

His best work is "Brothers in arms" from Mad max Fury road. It is incredible

Mrcool210 - 10/3/2015, 10:01 PM

Oh Lordy...Hell Yeah

IS this amazing news?

IS this movie going to be [frick]ing amazing?

Am I going to buy the soundtrack?

WhiteSAMURAI - 10/3/2015, 10:11 PM

To be honnest I can't remember a single thing from his Mad Max score. But that just means that the score won't be so terrible that I can't forget it.

Mrcool210 - 10/3/2015, 10:17 PM

@WhiteSAMURAI I think his amazing trailer track for the Batman V Superman trailers is enough to show his talent. Even if Mad Max was forgettable, everyone has an off day.

staypuffed - 10/3/2015, 10:57 PM

His Fury Road OST is his best work.

GhostDog - 10/3/2015, 11:36 PM

@MikeHawk that track is MY PUMP UP SONG! THAT SHIT GOES HARD

Saga - 10/3/2015, 11:37 PM

Hell yes!!!!. Junkie, Zimmer, Ottman & Jackman are gonna kill it this year.

WhiteSAMURAI - 10/3/2015, 11:38 PM

I'm trying to remember BvS trailer music....

Man, I feel like I'm insulting the guy (which I inadvertently am) but I really can't remember. I don't know, most soundtracks aren't memorable but I think that's largely my fault for not remembering.

WhiteSAMURAI - 10/3/2015, 11:40 PM

With a name like Junkie XL you're bound to be....in pretty good shape.

MrCBM56 - 10/4/2015, 7:36 AM

damn!

dancingmonkey08 - 10/4/2015, 1:11 PM

so the same guy will be doing the music for Batman and Deadpool, never thought I would see that haha but then the 1989 Batman, original Spider-Man trilogy and even part of Age Of Ultron was done by Danny Elfman, so anything is possible!

DeusExSponge - 10/4/2015, 3:11 PM

Hopefully he'll give Deadpool a soundtrack that's as epic as Brothers in Arms.
