“They do skate, actually,” Rogen said during an interview with the Hawk vs. Wolf podcast (confirmed by the new poster). “What’s funny is we were having a call with the music supervisor because we were pretty far along on and there’s a lot of music in it and they’re like ‘The music doesn’t go together…It goes together but in a weird way like how would you describe it?’ And our director was like ‘I kind of describe it as what you would kind of hear playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater.’ It’s like a random assortment of music, kind of, but it all fits together perfectly, it kind of has that same energy and spirit. But it really it actually it’s like very similar and there are literally some songs that are from like the original Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. It’s amazing it’s really cool, and it’s fully animated and it comes out in August and it’s incredible. I’m really psyched about it.”
