Goldblum has also shared the record’s lead single ‘The Best Is Yet To Come’, which features guest vocals from Johansson. It is a cover of the 1959 composition by Cy Coleman that was made famous by Frank Sinatra in 1964. Listen below.

Goldblum and Johansson both appeared in the 2017 Marvel film Thor: Ragnarok and have also starred alongside each other in the Wes Anderson films Isle Of Dogs and Asteroid City. Johansson has also nurtured her own music career, including the albums ‘Anywhere I Lay My Head’ in 2008 and ‘Break Up’ with Pete Yorn the following year.

‘Still Blooming’ also sees Goldblum team up with his two Wicked co-stars, with Grande singing on opening track ‘I Don’t Know Why (I Just Do)’, while Erivo features on the song ‘We’ll Meet Again’.

‘Still Blooming’ tracklist: 

1. ‘I Don’t Know Why (I Just Do)’ (ft. Ariana Grande) 
2. ‘The Grease Patrol’ 
3. ‘We’ll Meet Again’ (ft. Cynthia Erivo) 
4. ‘Blue Minor’ 
5. ‘The Best Is Yet To Come’ (ft. Scarlett Johansson) 
6. ‘Bye-Ya’ 
7. ‘Stella By Starlight’ (ft. Maiya Skyes) 
8. ‘Bouncing With Bud’

‘Still Blooming’ is Goldblum’s first musical release since his 2023 EP ‘Plays Well With Others’, which also featured a diverse list of guest stars, including Kelly Clarkson and Mattiel.

In 2018, Goldblum spoke to NME about his later-in-life diversion in jazz music, admitting he had “never thought of making an album, really” before an impromptu performance on The Graham Norton Show caught the eye of someone at Decca Records. “It’s all taken me by surprise,” he added.

Goldblum’s show Kaos was cancelled by Netflix in October, prompting a lot of fans of the series to sign a petition urging the streamer to reverse their decision.
