Tom Morello has said that when he was a kid his favorite superhero was Iron Man, but unlike a lot of his fellow comic-book nerds he’s going to have a crucial role in the upcoming Iron Man 2 film. Over the weekend, the Rage Against the Machine guitarist revealed via Twitter that he will be scoring the sequel, which comes out May 7.
Referring to a brief cameo he had in the first film, Morello writes, “Is that really me in Iron Man? Of course. Iron Man kicks my ass. I’m working on score for Iron Man 2. Rockin. Movie is awesome.” There’s no word when the score album will be released, but Paste is reporting that composer John Debney will be assisting Morello with the instrumental music. In addition, there will be an all-AC/DC soundtrack that accompanies the film, guaranteeing that this big-budget action movie will be well-stocked when it comes to hard-rock heroics.
