Walt Disney Records will release Hans Zimmer's original music for PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 2: DEAD MAN'S CHEST on July 4. It will be a score album featuring the orchestral music Hans Zimmer begins to record at the Sony Scoring Stage in Los Angeles this week. The music for the first film, released in 2003, was composed by Klaus Badelt and a group of other composers and produced by Hans Zimmer. Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley all return in the sequel, and they also star in the third film, which is also being scored by Hans Zimmer. DEAD MAN'S CHEST will open theatrically on July 7.
