Since original Jumanji composer James Horner is sadly no longer with us, the honor of writing the music was given to Henry Jackman. Just as on the Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle he created the music for the movie The Next Level. It is a different movie and score, since the main characters in the gaming world are different persons than their real-world counterparts. About “Attack of the Mandrills” Jackman said: “this piece plays over one of the most exciting set pieces in the entire sequel: our heroes race across a series of rickety and shifting rope bridges with an army of rabid primates in hot pursuit. I probably spent about six weeks on that one piece.” Two-time BAFTA nominee Henry Jackman has won multiple American Society of Composers, Authors & Publishers (ASCAP) Awards for his work on top box office films like “Kingsman: The Secret Service,” “Captain Phillips,” “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back,” and “X-Men: First Class,” as well as animated features such as ‘Monster vs. Aliens,’ ‘Puss in Boots,’ and ‘Wreck-It-Ralph’ for which he also won an Annie Award.
