Key Insights
Who is Junkie XL and why is he replacing Ramin Djawadi for the Supergirl film?
Junkie XL is the professional alias of Tom Holkenborg, a composer known for his bombastic, synth-driven scores on films like Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Mad Max: Fury Road. He is replacing Ramin Djawadi, known for orchestral scores like Game of Thrones, in a late-stage change likely to give the film a darker, more intense edge matching its anti-hero tone.[1][2][3]
