Marc Shaiman is back again with producer Rob Reiner
A Few Good Men, When Harry met Sally or The American President are by far three good examples of composer Marc Shaiman and director and producer Rob Reiner long collaboration.
Now they?re both back on the track with Rumor Has It. The plot isn't conventional at all: a family finds out that their private affairs had inspired Mike Nichols film The Graduate in 1968... Jennifer Aniston, Shirley MacLaine, Mark Ruffalo, Kevin Costner and Kathy Bates will be in the cast.
Shaiman's last movie project, Team America: World Police, was finally rejected by producers and given to Harry Gregson-Williams. However, the composer will keep busy arranging the Broadway hit Hairspray to be taken into the screen for 2006. Shaiman wrote, in fact, all the songs for Hairspray, together with lyricist Scott Wittman, but he's also planning to write more musical material, according to Music from the Movies, for the film adaptation.
