Muse 'would be interested in Bond theme'

Dom Howard has said that Muse would definitely be interested in recording a theme song for a future James Bond movie.

The drummer told the BBC that the band's music could well suit the style of the film franchise.

Howard said: "It's something we'd probably say yes to, or at least give it a good go. Certainly some of our music fits with the James Bond vibe - and I think it could work.

"The last few have been pretty good. But I think we could do a good job. 'United States of Eurasia' could have worked but it's probably a bit late for that now."

Regarding the possibility of the group scoring a whole film, he added: "Matt [Bellamy] did the end credits for a film called The International. It's not something we've done as a band, but we sometimes get asked for that kind of thing.

"It's a bit weird in the Hollywood world, because you spend a lot time being told what to do and that's a bit of a pain because we like to do what we want.

"So, I think if you can find a director you can really relate to, and it's a great film, and you know you can work well together, then it could be a possibility."
