Thomas Newman is composing the music for the upcoming drama Thank You for Your Service. The film marks the directorial debut of screenwriter Jason Hall (American Sniper) and stars Miles Teller, Haley Bennett, Amy Schumer, Joe Cole, Beulah Koale, Scott Haze, Keisha Castle-Hughes, Brad Beyer, Omar Dorsey, and Jayson Warner Smith. The movie follows a group of U.S. soldiers returning from Iraq who struggle to integrate back into family and civilian life, while living with the memory of a war that threatens to destroy them long after they’ve left the battlefield. Hall also wrote the screenplay based on David Finkel’s 2013 book of the same title. Jon Kilik (The Hunger Games, Foxcatcher, Babel, Dead Man Walking) is producing the project. Thank You for Your Service will be released on October 27, 2017 by Universal Pictures. Visit the official movie website for updates.
As previously reported, Newman also has Stephen Frears’ Victoria and Abdul coming up.
