Warner Bros. has released the full soundtrack to director Matt Reeves’ The Batman, and it’s sure to put you in the perfect dark and vengeful mood! I’m listening to it right now as I write this, and this is great, breathtaking stuff!
The score for the film was created by composer Michael Giacchino, and there are 29 tracks total on the soundtrack. Then if you want, you can always look at the titles of the tracks and see what you can make of them in terms of the story that the movie will tell.
You can enjoy the music below. If you’ve got a Batman costume, you might as well just throw that on before you listen to it to really take it in.
Here’s the synopsis for the film:
Two years of stalking the streets as the Batman (Robert Pattinson), striking fear into the hearts of criminals, has led Bruce Wayne deep into the shadows of Gotham City. With only a few trusted allies — Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis), Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright) — amongst the city’s corrupt network of officials and high-profile figures, the lone vigilante has established himself as the sole embodiment of vengeance amongst his fellow citizens.
When a killer targets Gotham’s elite with a series of sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues sends the World’s Greatest Detective on an investigation into the underworld, where he encounters such characters as Selina Kyle/aka Catwoman (Zoë Kravitz), Oswald Cobblepot/aka the Penguin (Colin Farrell), Carmine Falcone (John Turturro), and Edward Nashton/aka the Riddler (Paul Dano). As the evidence begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City.
The Batman is set to hit theaters on March 4, 2022.
