Wu Tang’s ultra-producer The RZA is to write the score for a new animated martial arts series which is due to be shown on US TV in the autumn.
The show, called Afro Samurai, is an animated show that features the voice of Samuel L. Jackson and will be based on a graphic novel by Takashi Okazaki, which centres around a black samurai that wants revenge on his father’s killers.
It’s not the first time RZA has penned film scores, as did the music for Kill Bill, Blade: Trinity and Ghost Dog: The Way Of The Samurai.
