Jake Monaco (Dumplin’, Let’s Be Cops, Like a Boss, Out, Forky Asks a Question, Keeping Up with the Joneses) has recently recorded his score for the upcoming Disney+ original movie Flora & Ulysses. The film is directed by Lena Khan (The Tiger Hunter) and stars Matilda Lawler, Alyson Hannigan, Ben Schwartz, Evans Ainsworth and Danny Pudi. The family drama is based on the children’s book Flora & Ulysses: The Illuminated Adventures by Kate DiCamillo and tells the story of a 10-year-old avid comic book fan and a self-avowed cynic, who saves a squirrel she names Ulysses only to have its unique superhero powers wreak havoc. Brad Copeland (Ferdinand, Spies in Disguise) wrote the screenplay. Gil Netter (Life of Pi, The Blind Side) is producing the Walt Disney Pictures production. Flora & Ulysses is expected to premiere in 2021 on Disney+.
