Hans Zimmers' "Drum Circle" for Man of Steel

I'm intrigued by the stuff coming through on HOD's homepage about the Man of Steel soundtrack. Apparently Hans Zimmer had a 'drum circle' (http://collider.com/man-of-steel-hans-zimmer/) of 12 drummers for it, and the list of drummers is outrageous - it includes:

John JR Robinson, Jason Bonham, Josh Freese, Pharrell Williams, Danny Carey, Satnam Ramgotra, Toss Panos, Jim Keltner, Curt Bisquera, Trevor Lawrence Jr., Matt Chamberlain, Ryeland Allison, Bernie Dresel, Vinnie Colaiuta and Sheila E


There's a score preview on YouTube - presumably the heavy percussive bits (e.g 30 seconds in) are the 'circle' in action. 12 of them in the same room playing together? That's awesome. I hope some footage emerges of this in action!

All those great drummers AND Pharrell Williams. I wonder how much that must have cost?
