Bear McCreary scores the pilot to Fox's 'Human Target'
Bear McCreary has announced he is working on two upcoming “must have” soundtrack releases.
The first is the score to Capcom’s sci-fi video game Dark Void, which will be released by Sumthing Else in 3-6 months time. The second is a new Battlestar Galactica soundtrack that will combine the scores of the BSG movie Razor and the soon to be released BSG movie The Plan.
A scene at the beginning of 'Human Target'
Human Target is a new action series from Fox based on the DC Comic of the same name.
The series follows bodyguard Christopher Chance (Mark Valley), a man who protects high-end clients from assassins by impersonating them or by masquerading as someone close to them. Whilst he protects his clients close by his partners work to investigate and find the killer.
The pilot episode, which premieres at the San Diego Comic-Con today (Saturday, July 25), guest stars Tricia Helfer of Battlestar Galactica fame – but that’s not the only Battlestar Galactica connection. BSG music composer Bear McCreary is the man behind the music in the pilot.
Today it has emerged that Bear McCreary will also be in charge of the music for the entire series.

No, it isn’t really a sci-fi show but given the pilot stars Fringe’s Mark Valley as the bodyguard Christopher Chance, Battlestar Galactica’s Tricia Helfer as his client, Watchmen’s Jackie Earl Harley (aka Rorschach) as his kind-of partner and given that it takes place on a fictional but futuristic speed train, the pilot qualifies for a write up. It’s also been a long while since an action series has entertained me so that’s another good reason to give it some attention.
