One additional song, "Plainsong" by The Cure, is featured in the movie, but was not included on the soundtrack album. Siri plays the song as Yellowjacket and Ant-Man are fighting inside a briefcase near the end of the film.
Background
editIn February 2014, director Edgar Wright tweeted that Steven Price would score the film.[1] However, Price left soon after Wright's departure from the project in May 2014.[2] In January 2015, Christophe Beck, who worked with Wright's replacement Peyton Reed on Bring It On, was hired to replace Price.[3] Describing the film's score, Beck said, "For Ant-Man, I wanted to write a score in the grand symphonic tradition of my favorite superhero movies, with a sweeping scope and a big, catchy main theme. What makes this score stand out among other Marvel movies, though, is a sneaky sense of fun since it is, after all, not only a superhero movie, but also a heist comedy."[4] The soundtrack was released digitally on July 17, 2015, and in physical media on August 7.[5]
