Deadline is reporting that singer/songwriter Santigold is set to compose the music for the upcoming musical fantasy The Kyd’s Exquisite Follies. The film is directed by Dee Rees (Mudbound, Pariah, Bessie) and centers on “a young musician who catapults herself from the anonymity of her hometown of Same Ol’, Same Ol’ to the bright lights and plastic sights of the fabled It City, in search of stardom”. Rees is also writing the screenplay and Cassian Elwes (Lee Daniels’ The Butler, The Paperboy, Elvis & Nixon) is producing the project. Santigold has previously contributed songs to such films as The Heat and Paper Towns. No casting announcements have been made yet and no word yet on a production start date for the movie.
