Fantastic Four Score and More...

Good news: John Ottman's score for the Fantastic Four movie will be released on uber-cool record label, Varese Sarabande, despite all of the major record companies' efforts. Batman Begins will have a score-only release featuring the combined talents of Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard.

Bad news: Matthew Vaughn has left the production of X3, leaving it in the mercy of either Behind Enemy Lines's John Moore or After the Sunset's Brett Ratner. Among the revealed casting are Vinnie jones as Juggernaut, Maggie Grace as Kitty Pryde, and Kelsey Grammer as Beast.

Varese Sarabande... hmmm vaguely recall that label... Hans Zimmer music for Batman- cool! I hope X3 will not suffer for loss of Vaughn... and Kelsey Grammer as Beast- I know he was pretensious as Fraiser, but, I don't see Beast as a snob. Was there a fight over casting Grammer or David Hyde Pierce?
