Hans Zimmer has offered his own assessment of his storied discography, naming his score for Christopher Nolan’s 2014 film Interstellar as his favorite with the caveat that his best is yet to come.
The German composer revealed his answer in a video clip he shared over on TikTok. “People always ask me what’s my favorite score and I keep avoiding answering the question. And how about I don’t avoid it this time?” Zimmer said. “I’m going to tell you that the first, the favorite score that I’ve ever written, I think, is Interstellar. Or, I haven’t written my favorite score yet. So, maybe that’s the better answer.”

Considering Zimmer has more than 100 soundtrack and film scores under his belt since the early 1980s, there is plenty of room for debate about his best work. The Lion King, Inception, The Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Gladiator are among his most notable compositions.

Next up, Zimmer is releasing a live double album compiling highlights from his career. It was recorded over the span of 10 nights alongside Zimmer’s 20-piece band “The Disruptive Collective” during his 2022 “Hans Zimmer LIVE” tour. Pre-orders are ongoing ahead of its March 3rd, 2023 release. He’s going on a 2023 European tour as well; grab your tickets for those dates via Ticketmaster.
