Elfman returns to MEN IN BLACK after scoring the franchise’s first three installments, joined by Chris Bacon, who has previously written additional music on Elfman’s scores including AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS and GOOSEBUMPS and his known for his own scores to TV’s BATES MOTEL and THE TICK, SOURCE CODE, and GNOMEO & JULIET. Available today, the soundtrack features music from the hugely-anticipated summer film, which makes its theatrical debut via Sony Pictures on Friday, June 14.

Of the soundtrack, composer Danny Elfman says, “I have always loved scoring the MEN IN BLACK series. It allows me to enter a weird quirky unique musical world that only exists in the MIB universe. Revisiting and updating is always a joy. And sharing this chapter with co-composer Chris Bacon was also a great experience. ”

The MEN IN BLACK have always protected the Earth from the scum of the universe.  In this new adventure, they tackle their biggest, most global threat to date: a mole in the Men in Black organization. MEN IN BLACK: INTERNATIONAL is directed by F. Gary Gray, and written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway, based on the Malibu Comic by Lowell Cunningham. Produced by Walter F. Parkes and Laurie MacDonald. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Edward Cheng, Howard Chen, E. Bennett Walsh, Riyoko Tanaka, David Beaubaire and Barry Sonnenfeld.
