Rodrigo took to social media to share a snippet of a new song called “Can’t Catch Me Now.” The snippet just happens to be in the trailer for Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. Along with the short trailer, the singer shared her excitement.
“Soooo beyond excited that I got the opportunity to write a song for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes,” she wrote in the post. Those who are itching to hear the song in its entirety won’t have to wait long. Rodrigo announced that the song will hit streaming platforms tomorrow, November 3.
Rodrigo finds herself in good company on the film’s soundtrack. Some of the biggest names in Americana and modern bluegrass appear on the album. Additionally, actress/singer Rachel Zegler has several entries on the soundtrack. She will also star in the new Hunger Games prequel as Lucy Gray Baird. Molly Tuttle, Sierra Ferrell, Flatland Cavalry, Billy Strings, Bella White, and more also make appearances on the soundtrack.
