Saudi Arabia's national anthem to get 'Zimmer makeover'
Saudi Arabia has tapped composer Hans Zimmer to revamp its national anthem as part of its modernisation efforts. Zimmer, known for scores like The Lion King and Dune, has agreed to the initial project outline, which includes a Saudi-inspired musical and a large concert. The kingdom's transformation includes reforms like allowing women to drive and launching projects like Neom, though critics argue these efforts mask ongoing human rights issues.
