Lakeshore Records will release a soundtrack album for Ben Wheatley’s Happy New Year, Colin Burstead. The album features the film’s original music composed by Clint Mansell (Requiem for a Dream, Black Swan, The Fountain, Moon, Noah, Loving Vincent) who previously scored the director’s High-Rise. The soundtrack will be released digitally next Friday, October 5 and is now available for pre-order on Amazon. Happy New Year, Colin Burstead is written and directed by Wheatley and stars Neil Maskell, Hayley Squires, Sam Riley, Joe Cole, Mark Monero, Charles Dance, Asim Chaudhry, Doon Mackichan and Bill Paterson. The movie follows the title character as he hires a lavish country manor for his extended family to celebrate New Year, but his position of power in the family comes under threat from the arrival of his estranged brother. The comedy drama will premiere next month at the London Film Festival and is set to air in the UK on BBC Two this holiday season.
