John Debney has composed the theme for the upcoming thriller Careful What You Wish For. The composer’s son Josh Debney and The Newton Brothers have written the score for the movie directed by Elizabeth Allen (Aquamarine, Ramona and Beezus) and starring Isabel Lucas, Dermot Mulroney, Nick Jonas, Graham Rogers and Paul Sorvino. The film follows a young, lonely wife of a wealthy businessman who rents the lake house next door to a high-school student. When the student starts an affair with the wife, he gets more than he bargained for. Robert L. Stein, Michael A. Helfant & Bradley Gallo are producing the project for Troika Pictures, alongside Ashok Amritraj (Bandits, Shopgirl) for Hyde Park and Kirk D’Amico. Debney has previously scored Troika’s The Call starring Halle Berry and Hyde Park’s Dreamer and The Double. The Newton Brothers have previously collaborated with Amritraj on Life of Crime, which premiered at this year’s Toronto Film Festival in September. Careful What You Wish For is expected to premiere next year.
