Olivia Rodrigo has shared her new song “Can’t Catch Me Now” that appears on the soundtrack for the upcoming film The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. While the entire soundtrack won’t arrive until November 17, the day of the movie’s release, Rodrigo dropped her contribution two weeks early. Listen to it below.
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes also features new music from Rachel Zegler, Molly Tuttle, Billy Strings, Sierra Ferrell, Flatland Cavalry, Bella White, and Charles Wesley Godwin. The book series-turned-film franchise has long tapped popular artists for the big screen, with previous soundtracks including music by Lorde, Chvrches, Bat for Lashes, Haim, Charli XCX, the National, the Weeknd, Patti Smith, Arcade Fire, and Coldplay.
Less than two months after releasing her sophomore album Guts, Rodrigo is gearing up to perform at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony this weekend. Fans can tune in to the livestream to watch her join “one of her heroes,” new inductee Sheryl Crow.
