Mac McCaughan of the rock bands Superchunk and Portastatic has composed the original score for the new Netflix original film Moxie. The movie is directed by Amy Poehler (Wine Country) and stars Hadley Robinson, Lauren Tsai, Alycia Pascual-Pena, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Nico Hiraga, Sydney Park, Josephine Langford, Clark Gregg, Anjelika Washington, Josie Totah, Charlie Hall, Sabrina Haskett, as well as Ike Barinholtz and Marcia Gay Harden. The teen comedy drama is based on the novel by Jennifer Mathieu and follows a shy 16-year-old who – inspired by her mom’s rebellious past and a confident new friend – publishes an anonymous zine calling out sexism at her school. Tamara Chestna (After) and Dylan Meyer (XOXO) wrote the screenplay. Poehler is also producing the project with Morgan Sackett (Veep, The Good Place, Parks and Recreation) and Kim Lessing. McCaughan has previously scored the 2002 & 2006 features Looking for Leonard and Who Loves the Sun. Moxie will premiere next Wednesday, March 3 exclusively on Netflix.
