The Space Cadet (2024) Soundtrack accompanies the Amazon Prime Video comedy Space Cadet, directed by Liz W. Garcia and starring Emma Roberts, Tom Hopper, Poppy Liu, and Gabrielle Union. The film’s original score was composed by John Debney, a veteran film composer known for his work on titles such as The Passion of the Christ, Iron Man 2, and The Jungle Book. Debney’s music blends light, upbeat orchestral cues with energetic thematic moments that support the movie’s humorous and heartfelt story of an unlikely astronaut hopeful.
While no official standalone soundtrack album has been released on major music platforms, Space Cadet features an extensive curated collection of licensed songs woven throughout the film that contribute to its tone and storytelling. These tracks include What I Want by Bagsy, Selfish Soul by Sudan Archives, Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen, Welcome to Paradise by Green Day, Face Down in the Moment by Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, and Space Girl by Feinte & Djibouti, among many others that play during key scenes and end credits.
The licensed song Space Girl by Feinte & Djibouti, featured over the end credits, has also been released on major music platforms and captures the film’s blend of fun and space‑themed energy.
The Space Cadet (2024) Soundtrack — combining Debney’s original score and a vibrant variety of licensed tracks — helps underline the movie’s comedic beats and emotional moments, even though the score itself does not yet have an official album release.
