Released on 21 July 2017 under WaterTower Music, this 59-minute album is a testament to Zimmer's innovative approach to scoring. Collaborating with Lorne Balfe, Andrew Kawczynski, Steve Mazzaro, and Benjamin Wallfisch, Zimmer has crafted a propulsive and glorious soundtrack that plays a pivotal role in the film's narrative.
