John Williams to Score HBP?

The Boston Globe has posted a new article covering a special concert series starting this Tuesday, which will feature new pieces from John William's score for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The article notes that the composer is busy as ever:

Williams, now 76, was conductor of the Pops from 1980 to 1993. According to industry reports, he remains a busy man, with soundtracks for "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," "Jurassic Park IV," and "Superman: Man of Steel" all scheduled for his touch.


Several months back, Warner Brothers officially announced that Order of the Phoenix composer Nicolas Hooper was set to score HBP. It should also be noted that both of the other two before mentioned films have not officially confirmed Williams either. The fourth Jurassic Park has been in pre-production since early 2002 and Superman Returns, which Man of Steel is a direct sequel too, wasn't scored by Williams. Keep this news very much in the rumor bin for now.
