Iggy Pop has recorded an original song for Stephen Gaghan’s drama Gold. The track, entitled Gold, is co-written by the singer/songwriter, the film’s composer Daniel Pemberton (who also uses elements from the song in his score), Gaghan and Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse). The track plays over the movie’s end credits. Gold starring Matthew McConaughey, Bryce Dallas Howard, Edgar Ramirez, Corey Stoll, Toby Kebbell, Bruce Greenwood and Stacy Keach follows a modern-day prospector desperate for a lucky break who teams up with a similarly eager geologist and sets off to find gold in the uncharted jungle of Indonesia. The drama will be released on January 27, 2017 by the Weinstein Company following an awards-qualifying release next month.
