Hans Florian Zimmer (born 12 September 1957) is a German film score composer and music producer. He has won two Oscars, four Grammys, and has been nominated for three Emmys and a Tony. Zimmer was also named on the list of Top 100 Living Geniuses, published by The Daily Telegraph in 2007. His works are notable for integrating electronic music sounds with traditional orchestral arrangements. Since the 1980s, Zimmer has composed music for over 150 films. He has won two Academy Awards for Best Original Score for The Lion King (1994) and for Dune (2021). His works include Gladiator, The Last Samurai, the Pirates of the Caribbean series, The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception, Man of Steel, Interstellar, Dunkirk, No Time to Die, and the Dune series.

He is the head of the film music division at DreamWorks Pictures and DreamWorks Animation studios and works with other composers through the company that he founded, Remote Control Productions, formerly known as Media Ventures. His studio in Santa Monica, California, has an extensive range of computer equipment and keyboards, allowing demo versions of film scores to be created quickly.

Similar to the original film, but with changes. Notably Superman saving people more frequently, less heavy destruction, and a more hopeful outlook on the film. Honestly, I think the script could be very similar to what we got with some changes to make it more endearing. For starters, both of the Kents are more supportive of Clark. Pa Kent is still the more protective of the two, but he is less harsh than the Snyder version and both Jonathan and Martha live. I think the Kryptonians can be reduced to Zod, Faora, and Nam-Ek, to mirror the Phantom Zone trio of the Donner films. Because of that, the collateral damage is much smaller in scale. I’d also like to change the setting of the final battle to the agricultural portion of Smallville, that way civilian damage is much smaller. I would also inject a scene during Clark’s school days where he uses his X-Ray vision to see that his teacher has a brain tumor. How does he do this? He compares her brain to that of the other adults and notices it. We use that scene as a reference, so when he is fighting the other Kryptonians, he basically pulls the same move from Superman vs the Elite. He sees the difference in Kryptonian brains and human brains and severs their connection, rendering them powerless (at least by the end of this film). The film would end with Superman taking the Kryptonian criminals to the authorities and helping Smallville rebuild. Then, we get the shot of Superman moving to Metropolis to join the Daily Planet to work with Lois, who he still built a connection with over the course of this film. There is a post credits scene of a Parademon returning to Apokolips and reporting his discovery of Superman to Darkseid, who replies, "Very well."
