The soundtrack was composed by multiple Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer, with additional music by John Powell.

The movie was nominated for 7 Academy Awards, including the Oscar for Best Music (Original Dramatic Score). The soundtrack won the award for Best Original Score at the Satellite Awards.
