UNITED24 reported on Instagram.

The 67-year-old German composer Hans Zimmer, known for creating music for such Hollywood films as Dune, The Lion King and Inception, supported Ukraine during his concert in Los Angeles.

The hall was lit in the colors of the Ukrainian flag - blue and yellow.

Zimmer has been supporting Ukraine since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion. During his concerts, the composer always displays the blue and yellow colors to remind the world of the courage of the Ukrainian military.

Zimmer dedicated a song from the film Wonder Woman (1984) to Ukrainian women. During its performance, a blue and yellow flag and photos of women defending Ukraine in the army are shown on the screen.

In September, during one of his shows, he switched on the blue and yellow illumination, and in early October, the Ukrainian flag appeared at Zimmer's performance.

In March 2022, the composer's team was joined by 10 performers from the Odesa Opera House, whom the composer helped to leave Ukraine.
