Background

James Newton Howard was originally attached to the film as composer. However, Henry Jackman took over scoring duties after the film's post-production schedule was pushed back 6 months which made Newton Howard unavailable.[1]

The score was recorded at the Barbra Streisand Scoring Stage and conducted by Nick Glennie-Smith and Stephen Coleman. Halli Cauthery and Paul Mounsey provided additional music.
