DreamWorks is set to celebrate Filipino culture with their upcoming animated feature, Forgotten Island, hitting theaters on September 25, 2026.
Directed by Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado, the story follows friends Jo and Raissa as they discover the mystical island of Nakali.
What truly sets this film apart is its star-studded, culturally rich soundtrack.
Curated by Angela Leus, the music blends nostalgic '90s hits with traditional Filipino instruments like the gandingan and the Las Piñas bamboo pipe organ.
The soundtrack features global icons, including P-pop sensations BINI with their original track 'A Parallel World' and SB19 performing a cover of the Francis M. classic 'Mga Kababayan.'
The title track, 'Forgotten Island,' is performed by H.E.R. and Liza Soberano, while Broadway legend Lea Salonga and Katseye’s Sophia Laforteza also contribute their immense talents.
By weaving together contemporary sounds and deep-rooted heritage, the creative team has ensured that the film—DreamWorks' first to focus on Filipino identity—feels both authentic and deeply personal.
