Justin Timberlake: “I’m pretty snobby anyway and it’s been so much fun to work with her. She doesn’t fancy herself that, but…”Īnna Kendrick: “It’s a lie. It’s been fun too to work specifically with Anna because she’s such a good singer. You just want to sonically complement that. The Gorillaz, you know you’re getting to see where the Bergens live. I think you treat each moment, you get to see some of the animation they’re working on, so you get to see how big a moment is. I think overall you’ll feel that a lot of the music definitely has a little bit of ‘70s funk to it, so that was definitely an inspiration for ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling’ as well. So to write it specifically for the movie and to have a little bit of a hack code into the fact that some of the music does sound very ‘70s if I may. I’ve never done anything like that as well. Then as well, wrote four original songs, one of them that you may or may not have heard which is in the movie as well and specifically written for the movie. ‘Sound of Silence’ was already picked out too so my job for that was just hopefully to put our own spin on it, make it sound unique, make it sound like it belonged in the scene, much like musical theater almost. So I think that once the songs were cleared and I came in, ‘True Colors’ was definitely already picked out for this moment in the movie. I don’t know if you know about the clearance process but that can be mind-numbing. And a song like ‘True Colors.’ Now, I came on a little after some of the songs were sought after and cleared. Some seven-year-old’s gonna walk away knowing ‘The Sound of Silence’ which is very cool. For a musical like this, which I think to stay with the theme of DreamWorks, what’s made them so reverent, to take these classic toys and mythological creatures from so long ago and really modernize them, that was our M.O. I’ve never been the music producer for a film. Justin Timberlake: “This is my first time to do it on this level. How does the process of music producing work? Timberlake also serves as the film’s Executive Music Producer, both for original songs and covers of classics like “Sounds of Silence” and “True Colors.” Trolls opens in theaters on November 4. Kendrick and Timberlake attended a presentation of footage from Trolls at DreamWorks’ offices on Thursday, Jand participated in a Q&A. Timberlake plays Branch, a more practical troll who doesn’t like to sing and hug, but likes to be prepared for emergencies. Based on the Troll dolls which were a craze throughout the decades, Kendrick plays Poppy, a happy troll thriving on hugs and songs.
