When releasing a film to the public, the film's score is usually the very last thing to be completed. This means that there will be enough finished scenes to make a trailer, but no soundtrack yet. What's a studio to do? Slap in some music from another film, stock music, or even a pop song, that evokes the general mood they're going for, that's what. Licensed music made entirely for trailers by groups like Two Steps From Hell and used to advertise several unrelated products is not an example of this trope. Examples of Recycled Trailer Music include:

Slap in some music from another film, stock music, or even a pop song, that evokes the general mood they're going for, that's what. The first film of a franchise is most likely to use this trope, whereas trailers for future films tend to reuse music from the previous ones. For example, most Star Wars trailers after A New Hope used portions of John Williams' score for that film, whereas the original trailer for A New Hope used stock music! Once the score is completed, the studio might release a new batch of trailers using the film's own music.
