November 6, 2016 by Gary Collinson

If a post on Reddit is to be believed, Doctor Strange composer Michael Giacchino will be returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe next year, with Kevin Feige reportedly announcing him as composing the score for Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Giacchino has worked extensively with Disney in the past, scoring the likes of  Up, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Cars 2, Inside Out, Zootopia, John Carter, Tomorrowland. He was also recently announced as taking over from Alexandre Desplat on next month’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, with Desplat becoming unavailable due to the reshoots on the Anthology movie.
