So, let me understand this: John Frizzell is scoring the film (unless someone here wishes to correct me), but the soundtrack will feature Cliff Martinez’s music? I call shenanigans.
Cliff Martinez has recently finished scoring the film. For some reason, one of the official posters has Frizzell’s name listed as the composer on the movie. We haven’t been able to find out further details about his involvement, but it has been confirmed to us that Martinez is the official composer on the film.
