Axl Rose might be one of rock’s most famous frontmen, but it seems that if he has his way, his music might one day be fronting some of Hollywood’s biggest films.

Last Friday, we passed the tenth anniversary of the release of Guns N’ Roses’ Chinese Democracy. Famous for its lengthy production process, it became the band’s first album in 17 years, and was noted as the most expensive rock album ever produced.

While the record featured a bit of a stylistic change, it seems that even ten years after its release, Axl Rose again wants to change things up, explaining that film soundtracks might be where his future lies.

As Alternative Nation reports, Axl Rose recently spoke to Atlas, where the rocker was asked if he would like to write music for films.

“Listening to movie soundtracks is a big thing for me,” Rose began. “When you listen to stuff like Pirates Of The Caribbean and you get that blend of orchestra and modern instrumentation – it’s very clever.”

“I have a lot of respect for the guys who do that. It is something that I would like to do at some point in the future.”

Of course, this isn’t the first time that Axl Rose has shown a fondness for orchestral music, teaming up with composer Marco Beltrami during the production of Chinese Democracy.

“That was sort of just work for hire,” Beltrami said to IGN in a 2003 interview (via Alternative Nation). “I guess they’d heard some of my orchestral music of mine.”

“I met with Axl [Rose] and he played me these songs, asked me my ideas about them, and I told him what I thought they needed. They gave me four songs to orchestrate. A couple of them I did more than orchestrating, I actually wrote some melodies and stuff. It was a fun project. I really enjoyed it.”

“The music was eclectic and at the time that I was doing it there were no lyrics on the songs that I was working on.”

While Slash has noted that there are plans for more Guns N’ Roses material in the future, there’s every chance that Axl Rose could ensure it doubles as a film soundtrack as well.
