Pharrell has been tabbed by Universal Pictures to do the score for an upcoming movie:
Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment have set Preston Whitmore to write and direct “Zoom,” a music-themed film that teams “8 Mile” producer Brian Grazer with musician and music producer Pharrell Williams.
Grazer and Williams will produce. Williams will compose the score and soundtrack.
“Zoom” is the story of a troubled West Virginia youth who attends a music academy and finds his voice and a place in the world.
Whitmore most recently wrote, directed and produced “This Christmas.”
Imagine just released the Ron Howard-directed “Frost/Nixon.”
Endeavor repped Whitmore and Williams.
I mean damn…they have ridden this troubled rapper/dancer/singer thing into the ground. Can we get a break for a while? (LOL at us sounding like Bossipers commenting on a Beyonce post) The best thing the movie has going is the score and soundtrack, which we’re sure Pharrell will hook up properly.
