Juno Spawns Soundtrack Sequel
Just when you though the Juno news posts on /Film had finally come to an end, we bring you news of a sequel... kinda.
The soundtrack to Juno was almost as big as the indie film sensation itself, hitting number one on the Billboard charts and becoming the best-selling album on the United States iTunes music store upon release and remaining so for more than ten weeks thereafter. So while a sequel to the film has been discounted by the filmmakers (at least for now), a sequel to the soundtrack has just been announced.
Rhino Records will be releasing "Juno B-Sides: Almost Adopted Songs," a 15-track collection available exclusively through iTunes for $9.99 on April 8th. The album will then be available through all digital service providers on May 13th. Director Jason Reitman insists that this isn't just a money grab, writing in the liner notes:
"None of these songs made the movie, but they are all essential members of the Junoverse."
