Airmail have done an extensive write-up of the Elfman/Abadi saga. You need to provide your email to read.
Composer Danny Elfman’s Complicated #MeToo Story: Jacob Bernstein Reports – Air Mail
It’s filled with quotes and text messages. It also details the Raimi connection which I previously noted. It seems compelling….
I had no idea that theme park stans were a thing, but they are, and according to them:
1. This sold out immediately.
2. These sorts of things are hardly ever released.
30th January 2026 – release date.

This will open in France on 30th July.
Serra’s score for Besson’s previous movie, Dogman, was released on CD in France. Fingers crossed the same happens here.
So… Dracula is done.
Wednesday Season 2 has finished filming.
Van Sant’s Dead Man Walking started filming a month ago.
Raimi’s Send Help started filming a few days ago.
Elfman worked on Wednesday Season 1 for two months, so I guess it’s possible he manages to fit all of them in.
This is really cool, but are they releasing an alternate or extended video or something? The actual video has none of these segments.
Has started shooting.
The writers have seemingly (and recently) deleted their tweet which suggested that Danny would score, Bill Pope would lens and Bob Murawski would edit.
Elfman was recording in Budapest yesterday. I have no idea if Dracula is recorded yet, so it could have been for that, but he previously recorded his Wednesday episodes there, so it could suggest that he’s scoring some of Season 2.
This was for Dracula.

The score has made the BAFTA longlist. The longlist is ten scores, but five will be nominated.
I don’t expect it to get nominated there or at the Oscars (that longlist was 15 scores), but I’m really surprised by the apparent support. I can only guess that voters are thinking, “I like the Beetlejuice theme” and ticking the box.
Nominated for a Saturn Award and made the Oscar shortlist for Best Original Score…
Between this and winning the Emmy, there doesn’t seem to be much of an industry backlash to the allegations.
Starts shooting next month.

This is an excellent release. Though you can still hear the temp track bleed through, Elfman’s original music is such a mature extension of his score for the first. Excellent storytelling going on here. Such a shame so much of it wasn’t used (Aunt May’s speech being set to the love theme, to this day, drives me insane).
No other composer got Spider-Man like Elfman did. He really did nail it.
Awesome! Is there anything that’s like coming down the pike that you’re really excited about?
Caleb Landry Jones: I’m excited for this Dracula film that’ll come out soon. Danny Elfman, who I love, he’s making the music for the film. [Caleb gestures again at the Burton Batman poster, which Elfman soundtracked.] Very excited, yeah. It was a real honor to get to meet him. He came to the studio for a few days, just to get a feeling of the movie and what Luc [Besson] was doing.
