Catch A Listen To The SUICIDE SQUAD Soundtrack From Composer Steven Price

WaterTower Music has released a first track from the score to director David Ayer’s highly anticipated SUICIDE SQUAD, featuring the music of Academy Award-Winning composer Steven Price.

Price was tasked with navigating musically the colorful storyline of an assembled team of the world’s most dangerous Super-Villains and the emotional highs and lows they experience on an impossible mission.

“David’s film invited me to find a way to bring all of these incredible misfit outsiders together as a united force, with a thematic score that goes from moments of quiet emotion to huge action sequences,” explains Price. “The character’s themes interact and develop as the film progresses, and we witness the birth of the Suicide Squad. The score was a huge challenge, but a fantastic amount of fun to write!”

In 2014, his groundbreaking score for Alfonso Cuaron’s GRAVITY (Interview) won the British composer not only the Academy Award but also the BAFTA, Critics’ Choice and Satellite Award, as well as ASCAP’s first-ever Film Composer of The Year Award.

He also scored FURY (Interview), the WWII epic written and directed by David Ayer, starring Brad Pitt; “Believe,” a drama series produced by Alfonso Cuaron and JJ Abrams for NBC; and the BBC’s “The Hunt,” a landmark natural history documentary series narrated by Sir David Attenborough.

The Suicide Squad: Original Motion Picture Score release date is Monday, August 8th, 2016 and can be preordered now at iTunes and Amazon.

From director David Ayer (“Fury,” “End of Watch”) comes SUICIDE SQUAD, starring Oscar nominee Will Smith (“Ali,” “The Pursuit of Happyness”), Oscar winner Jared Leto (“Dallas Buyers Club”), Margot Robbie (“The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Focus”), Joel Kinnaman (Netflix’s “House of Cards”) and Oscar nominee Viola Davis (“The Help,” “Doubt”).

It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super-Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?

Written and directed by Ayer based on the characters from DC, the film also stars Jai Courtney (“Insurgent”), Jay Hernandez (“Takers”), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (“Thor: The Dark World”), Ike Barinholtz (“Neighbors”), Scott Eastwood (“Fury”), Cara Delevingne (“Paper Towns”), Adam Beach (“Cowboys & Aliens”), and Karen Fukuhara in her feature film debut.

The film will be released in 3D, and in 2D, and in select IMAX 3D theaters on August 5th.
