Legendary musician and German film score composer Hans Zimmer has been a joy and a gift to this world with the kind of music he has created throughout the years. From some iconic piano highs to some saddening violin lows, Zimmer has done it all.
Often working alongside Christopher Nolan and some other recurring names, Zimmer has provided music to several iconic films. With the composer nearing the age of 67 years, people have often thought about his retirement. Well, Hans Zimmer just confirmed that he isn’t going to retire ever!
Hans Zimmer Does Not Have Any Plans To Retire!
Zimmer recently received heaps of praise for composing the music for Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two. With several projects working side-by-side, Zimmer has become quite a busy film score composer, and with good reason.
Often referred to as one of the best composers of this generation, Hans Zimmer has indeed created a name for himself. Working alongside a plethora of iconic directors, the music composer recently revealed in an interview with IndieWire about his plans to retire. Thankfully, Zimmer doesn’t plan to retire anytime soon.
“Are you kidding me? I’ve played all my life. Why would I stop playing? Why would I stop living a playful life? Why would I stop trying to, you know, invent things? Why would I? I mean, there are good reasons because, as soon as I sit down and there is the blank page and I’m supposed to write something, I’m like ‘Oh my god, I have no idea how to do this,”
He further continued,
“After two weeks I want to phone the director and give him a number of a composer who can, but somehow this dichotomy of wanting to do something new, it’s the truth. Somewhere in the back of my mind, it lingers, a piece of music I have not written that I think is really good, but I don’t know how to get to it. So I just have to go and scramble until I get this piece, and it just hasn’t happened yet.”
With the happy news that Zimmer revealed, the fans quickly took to X (formerly Twitter) to share their opinions on the news. Well, almost none of them wanted Zimmer to retire, and they are quite happy with the news.
