Starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, Fly Me To The Moon is a sharp, stylish comedy-drama set against the high-stakes backdrop of NASA's historic Apollo 11 moon landing. Sparks fly in all directions as marketing maven Kelly Jones (Scarlet Johansson), brought in to fix NASA's public image, wreaks havoc on launch director Cole Davis' (Channing Tatum) already difficult task. When the White House deems the mission too important to fail, Jones is directed to stage a fake moon landing as backup, and the countdown truly begins.
On the Fly Me To The Moon Original Soundtrack, Daniel Pemberton expertly balances the movie's juxtaposition of the weighty importance of NASA's mission to the moon alongside more comedic and heist-like episodes within the story. Pemberton also took care to incorporate the film's time period into the score as well, composing with a nod to the various needle drops throughout the film from artists like Sam Cooke. "I really wanted to capture that sense of fun energy and sort of lightness that some of those great 60s records had," he shares, referencing work by Quincy Jones including The Italian Job soundtrack and Big Band Bossa Nova. "They have a really fun vibe that's still interesting musically, but has a lightness and a great kind of positive energy to it.
