My Chemical Romance to Cover Famous Folk Singer for Movie Soundtrack

Although it might be some time until we hear a new album from My Chemical Romance, the band is in talks to record a song for the soundtrack of the 2009 superhero flick "The Watchmen" ... and it might be a cover.

"[Frontman Way] is a super-great guy, and an awesome musician, and so we're trying to work with them right now to put together possibly a song for the end titles," "Watchmen" director Zack Snyder told MTV News. Snyder is leaning towards a Bob Dylan cover for the band, stating: "[They'll perform] like a cover of 'Desolation Row,' or something like that. I've talked with him and I've heard a little bit of some stuff that's he's done [covering Dylan] ... and it's pretty freaking cool."

Snyder went on to discuss his first initial interaction with Way, explaining: "Honestly, he contacted me, just as a fan. [He wanted] to say like: 'I hope the movie's cool,' and then we went, 'Hey, maybe we can do something.' So it's worked out pretty cool." My Chemical Romance will be the only modern day rock band on the soundtrack, the rest dating back before 1985, the year in which "Watchmen" is set.

In 2006, My Chemical Romance's "To the End" was featured on the "Underworld: Evolution" soundtrack. Speaking of movies, rumor has it that Way's popular comic book, The Umbrella Academy, may become a movie in the near future.
