The Dog Stars Soundtrack


Get ready to board the plane, because a gripping new post-apocalyptic thriller is hitting cinemas this week: The Dog Stars, directed by the visionary Ridley Scott.

Based on Peter Heller’s novel, this film plunges audiences into a world where survival is the only law. At the heart of the story is Jacob Elordi, who stars as Hig, a young pilot who has navigated the devastation of a global pandemic.

Hig’s journey is one of desperate exploration. He lives alongside his dog Jasper and the military survivalist Bangley, played by Josh Brolin, amidst the ruins of an abandoned airfield. When a mysterious radio signal beckons him, Hig must venture into the unknown in search of other survivors, setting off an adventure filled with peril and discovery.

The film is anchored by a stellar cast, featuring acclaimed performances from Margaret Qualley, Guy Pearce, Benedict Wong, and Allison Janney, promising a richly layered narrative that explores the depths of human resilience.

Beyond the compelling visuals and action, the sonic landscape of The Dog Stars is equally unforgettable. The film boasts an original score by Harry Gregson-Williams, a frequent collaborator of Scott known for his work on titles like The Martian and Gladiator II.

To complete the musical experience, the film features a stunning 17-track album of needle drop songs. These selections blend classic crooners and iconic rock anthems with unique cinematic flair. The soundtrack includes tracks from artists such as Hozier, Van Morrison, Dean Martin, and Mick Jagger, alongside gems like Like Real People Do by Hozier and Memories Are Made of This by Dean Martin.

This incredible collection of music will be released digitally by Hollywood Records, offering fans a chance to experience the cinematic mood alongside the unforgettable melodies.
