A Complete Unknown (soundtrack)

A Complete Unknown is the official motion picture soundtrack to the 2024 live-action feature film of the same name, which was released by Columbia Records on December 20, 2024. 
==Background==
The soundtrack consists mainly of songs written by Bob Dylan and performed by Timothée Chalamet, who plays Dylan in the film. Additional tracks feature performances by Monica Barbaro, Edward Norton, and Boyd Holbrook, portraying Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, and Johnny Cash, respectively. Produced by James Mangold and Nick Baxter, with help from Steven Gizicki, the soundtrack includes tracks like "Like a Rolling Stone" and "Girl from the North Country," which were released as singles on December 6, 2024. The film delves into Dylan's life, especially his transition to electric instruments. Director James Mangold chose a selection of Dylan's songs from this era for the film. 
Timothée Chalamet prepared for his role by extensively listening to Dylan's music and performing live during production. Despite the initial plan to use pre-recorded vocals, Chalamet's live performances impressed the production team, leading to their inclusion in the film. The sound team used period-appropriate microphones to capture an authentic sound, avoiding modern earpieces to maintain the 1960s feel. The result was a dynamic live sound, with performances recorded as if in a concert setting. The album is available digitally, with a vinyl release planned for January 2025 and a CD release in February 2025.
