Oscar-winning actor Anne Hathaway<\/a> is one of the best of her generation. While she is known for her acting talent and versatility, a lesser-known side of her is her amazing singing voice. Her upcoming film, Mother Mary, makes use of her vocal chops by having her play a pop star, complete with an original soundtrack. Now, the first single, titled \u201cBurial,\u201d has been released on streaming platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cBurial\u201d was written by singer Charli XCX, and features production from Bleachers\u2019 frontman Jack Antonoff and from The 1975\u2019s George Daniel. The song establishes the synth-pop sound of the titular pop diva, who is described as a mix between Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n

The movie, produced by A24 and directed by David Lowery, follows Hathaway\u2019s character as she reunites with her former costume designer and best friend, played by Michaela Coel. The encounter takes place on the night before her comeback performance following the lowest point in her career. The cast is rounded out by Hunter Schafer, Atheena Frizzell, Kaia Gerber, Jessica Brown Findlay, Alba Baptista, Isaura Barb\u00e9-Brown, Sian Clifford, and FKA Twigs, who also contributed to the soundtrack.<\/p>\n

Hathaway has previously had singing roles in movies like Ella Enchanted (2004) and Rio (2011), as well as her award-winning performance in Les Miserables (2012). Despite her long list of varied roles, the actor describes her character in Mother Mary as the most challenging yet in her career. \u201cWhat struck me right away, reading the script, is that you can\u2019t \u2018perform\u2019 Mother Mary. If I got the part, I would have to become material David [Lowery] could craft with,\u201d Hathaway told Vogue.<\/p>\n

Given her long career, dipping her feet into something new was intimidating. \u201cI had to submit to being a beginner,\u201d she says. \u201cThe humility of that\u2014showing up every day knowing you\u2019re going to suck. And it has to be okay. You\u2019re not \u2018bad.\u2019 You\u2019re just a beginner. Getting to that mindset\u2014I had to shed some things that were hard to shed. It was welcome. But it was hard, the way transformational experiences can be hard.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mother Mary is opening in limited theaters across the U.S. on April 17, the same day the full soundtrack LP, comprised of seven songs, will be released. The movie will then be released nationwide on April 24.<\/p>\n
