The Wild Robot | Score

The Wild Robot - In Theaters Now

From DreamWorks Animation comes a new adaptation of a literary sensation, Peter Brown’s beloved, award-winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, The Wild Robot.

The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot—ROZZUM unit 7134, “Roz” for short — that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling.

The Wild Robot stars Academy Award® winner Lupita Nyong’o (Us, The Black Panther franchise) as robot Roz; Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) as fox Fink; Emmy winner Catherine O’Hara (Schitt’s Creek, Best in Show) as opossum Pinktail; Oscar® nominee Bill Nighy (Living, Love Actually) as goose Longneck; Kit Connor (Heartstopper, Rocketman) as gosling Brightbill and Oscar® nominee Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once, this summer’s The Fall Guy) as Vontra, a robot that will intersect with Roz’s life on the island.

The film also features the voice talents of Emmy winning pop-culture icon Mark Hamill (Star Wars franchise, The Boy and the Heron), Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows, The SpongeBob Movie franchise) and Golden Globe winner and Emmy nominee Ving Rhames (Mission: Impossible films, Pulp Fiction).

A powerful story about the discovery of self, a thrilling examination of the bridge between technology and nature and a moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to all living things, The Wild Robot is written and directed by three-time Oscar® nominee Chris Sanders—the writer-director of DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon, The Croods, and Disney’s Lilo & Stitch—and is produced by Jeff Hermann (DreamWorks Animation’s The Boss Baby 2: Family Business; co-producer, Kung Fu Panda franchise).

Peter Brown’s The Wild Robot, an illustrated middle-grade novel first published in 2016, became a phenomenon, rocketing to #1 on the New York Times bestseller list. The book has since inspired a trilogy that now includes The Wild Robot Escapes and The Wild Robot Protects. Brown’s work on the Wild Robot series and his other bestselling books have earned him a Caldecott Honor, a Horn Book Award, two E.B. White Awards, two E.B. White Honors, a Children’s Choice Award for Illustrator of the Year, two Irma Black Honors, a Golden Kite Award and a New York Times Best Illustrated Book Award.

There's no physical way there's gonna be a better score this year than this movie. It's the best film score since Oppenheimer.

I could use a boost broke me, I had to contain myself in the theater to not disturb the people around me

[I_Am_The_One_Who_Knocks.]

Just saw it tonight, this score is best of the year. It’s crazy how much a score can affect a movie

[flurrabell]

Academy members shouldn't just be asking if The Wild Robot's music should get nominated; this NEEDS to be a frontrunner for Best Original Score. The music is present throughout, from the moment Roz enters the forest until the credits roll. And when the music swells, so do our hearts. Outstanding work by Kris and Chris.

The migration scene was absolutely BEAUTIFUL

[Steven-nc]

Once "I could use a boost" track hit, my entire theater broke down. And we were only halfway through the scene. I don't think anyone in that theater had dry eyes by the time Roz caught the feather, the score is amazing

[zarwolfdog]

The soundtrack was one of my favorite parts of this movie.

[davidvega]

I hope they nominate wild robot for best animated film and original score in the oscars

[Shannon-K]

That migration scene had me in SHAMBLES 🥹

[JonathanMuncherian]

The whole movie I was fighting back tear after tear trying not to make a scene in the theater, but the migration scene, I completely lost it and couldn't contain my tears. Best movie of the year, hands

[vishesh.a]

I could use a boost scene breaks you in tears and inspires you. I was holding the urge to cry. This movie is awesome.

[fruityrobo]

I Could Use a Boost made me feel things i havent felt in awhile

[EmannHomeless]

The track "I Could Use A Boost"... My gosh i could tear up just by listening to it.

[Sarah-qxvz]

To me, the migration scene felt like a parent saying goodbye to their child being deployed

[highfiveanimations]

Kris is so talented, this better get an Oscar.

[infallibleblue]

Bravo to the talent in this movie!!! Music was stunning. The art was beautiful and the stripy is top tier!!!

[onapersonalnote]

"I Could Use a Boost" captured the same magic HTTYD's "Test Drive" had many years ago.

[RomelRodriguezH]

The best movie of the year, The Wild Robot is so beautiful!

[FriendsOfDorothyEmmyOscarTony]

The repeated motif they use with the heavy strings got me welled up every single time it played. Especially during the learning to fly sequence

[manuelorozco]

The music in this film is so evocative! I knew we were in for something from the moment the first trailer appeared.
