The Next Three Days is based on the 2007 French movie Pour Elle which received a score by Klaus Badelt. The movie marks writer/director Haggis first collaboration with Danny Elfman. His regular composer collaborator Mark Isham (Crash, In The Valley of Elah) reportedly was originally slated to score the movie. Other reports indicated that Alberto Iglesias was hired to score the movie earlier this year, but Film Music Reporter hasnt been able to confirm his involvement.
