Composer Tom Holkenborg, commonly known and referred to as Junkie XL, provided the score to the upcoming movie, and recently shared on social media that it would release on the same day. The score, of course, being the music that isn’t just… well, the stuff from the recently released music video for the movie’s theme song. Think instrumentals, rather than vocals, and you’ve basically got the idea.
