Rising soul singer Leon Bridges lends his voice for the official soundtrack to Will Smith’s upcoming film, Concussion. The emotionally-charged song was penned by Bridges and will play over the ending credits of film. Concussion will hit theaters on December 25.
In an interview with Variety, the director Peter Landesman praised Bridges for his contribution to the movie’s soundtrack.
“I’m so glad to have Leon’s music in the movie,” Landesman said. “His songs are a shot straight from the heart, full of feeling and emotion, power and heartbreak. And it’s a perfect match for the movie, because I could describe Dr. Bennet Omalu the same way — in the movie, he’s a spiritual person, standing up on his own against a world of powerful forces, using only his smarts, his courage and the knowledge that he’s right.”
