Warning! SPOILERS for Roar.
Roar's soundtrack is as eclectic as its combination of different genres and stories — here's a guide to every song in the show. Based on the book Roar by Cecelia Ahern, the Apple TV+ series tells the stories of eight different women while tackling several of the most crucial sociopolitical issues affecting women today. Drawing comparisons to shows such as Twilight Zone, Black Mirror, Man Seeking Woman, and Love, Death, & Robots, Roar combines magic realism, social reality, comedy, drama, horror, and sci-fi, and its songs are a reflection of the variety of genres featured in the series.
The music for Roar was arranged by Isobel Waller-Bridge, who famously composed the music for her sister Phoebe's critically acclaimed tragicomedy Fleabag. Waller-Bridge also wrote music for movies such as Vita and Virginia, Emma, The Phantom of the Opera, and Munich: The Edge of War. Waller-Bridge's genre-bending skills are in full display in Roar.
