Alien: Covenant

Harry Gregson-Williams was initially selected as the film's composer, but confirmed in November 2016 that he was no longer working on Alien: Covenant. Gregson-Williams summarized the reasons for his departure from the project as a mixture of scheduling and creative issues, stating that "schedules and one's expectations of scoring a film don't always fit and this one wasn't going to work out." During the trailer's release in late 2016, rising Norwegian singer and songwriter AURORA was announced to have contributed to the official soundtrack. The first trailer revealed that Jed Kurzel had replaced Gregson-Williams as the composer.
