The film’s downloadable soundtrack will be released on June 17, the same day it premieres in theaters in the United States.
Mission Perpetual is one of my favourite sequences,” Giacchino said in a statement. “It’s early in the movie, and Buzz is attempting to complete a mission and failing. It was a thrilling task for me because the music had to portray so many emotions: Buzz’s anger with himself and the misery of being alone in his pursuit, as well as his unwavering passion and will to succeed. I had to go through a similar’mission’ to get this cue correct, but it was immensely fulfilling after I did.”
