The internet all but exploded when news broke that Danny Elfman would be replacing Junkie XL as the composer for Justice League. Which is understandable, as Danny Elfman created one of the most iconic superhero themes of all time.

Aside from John Williams’ Superman score, no other piece of comic book music is as memorable as that of Tim Burton’s Batman. Elfman created a piece of music that has been synonymous with The Caped Crusader ever since, and it looks like that iconic theme may be making a return.

In an interview with Reporte Indigo, Elfman was asked if he would be using his classic Batman score for Justice League, to which the composer replied: “You will hear Batman’s theme for Batman… Batman has only had one theme.”

This is certainly exciting news, and also not the first time that a classic score has made a return. Remember, John Williams’ theme was brought back for Superman Returns, though that was considered a full-on sequel to the Richard Donner film (and Elfman is also reportedly incorporating the Williams theme into Justice League).
