Exclusive: Acoustic Cover Of Guns 'n Roses' "Sweet Child 'O Mine" By The Cast Of 'Captain Fantastic'

Captain Fantastic” has been the little charmer that could ever since debuting at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The very selective programmers at the Cannes Film Festival chose the indie dramedy to screen on the Croisette, and it went over like gangbusters, with Matt Ross winning the Un Certain Regard Directing prize. But there are more treasures coming from the film, including an unlikely cover of a hair-metal standard.

During a key moment in the film about a family living off the grid who have to face the real world when tragedy strikes, the cast — Viggo Mortensen, George MacKay, Samantha Isler, Annalise Basso, Nicholas Hamilton, Kirk Ross and Philip Klein— break into an infectious, inspired cover of Guns ‘n Roses‘ “Sweet Child O’ Mine.” It’s a pretty terrific take and adds a heart-rending quality to the original tune.

“Captain Fantastic” is now playing in limited release and the soundtrack will be released via Lakeshore Records on July 15th.
