Deadpool and Wolverine
The team of Deadpool & Wolverine took the music for their film very seriously. Starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, the film has been directed by Shawn Levy. The film's score is by Rob Simonsen, whose previous credits include 500 Days Of Summer, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and The Whale. The makers have used several popular songs by famous artists in the film with due credit and permission.
In fact, for the use of the song 'Like a Prayer', Levy and Reynolds personally visited Madonna to get her permission. In an interview with Andy Cohen on SiriusXM, Reynolds said, "Also, let's preface it with the fact that they don't license, that Madonna doesn't just license the song, particularly that song. It was a big deal to ask for it, and certainly a bigger deal to use it. We went over and met with her and sort of showed her how it was being used, where, and why".
The makers have strategically used songs of musicians like Stray Kids, NSYNC, Avril Lavigne among others. Take a look at the complete list of songs:
âOnly You (And You Alone)' - The Platters
