JON LANDAU ABOUT DUA LIPA’S ‘SWAN SONG’
‘From the moment we watched her ‘New Rules’ music video, we knew Dua Lipa is the perfect artist to make a song for ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL,’ producer Jon Landau commented.
‘She’s got this outstanding strength, power and attitude in her performances that Alita embodies in the film. Jim, Robert and I are thrilled to have her on board. Moreover, we are confident that she makes ‘SWAN SONG’ a perfect inspiring and powerful anthem for our film.’
DUA LIPA ABOUT ‘ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL’
Dua Lipa adds: ‘I’m fascinated by both Alita and the great team of filmmakers who came together to make this film possible. I recognize a lot of myself in Alita. In her incredible temper and our similar haircut. ALITA is about self-actualization and standing up for who you are – these are both things that resonate with me.’
‘SWAN SONG’ was written by Justin Tranter, Kennedi Lykken, Mattias Larsson, Robin Fredriksson, Tom Holkenborg and Dua Lipa.
After a year of number-one hit singles, sold-out shows and record-breaking streaming odds, Dua Lipa has become one of the world’s most successful newcomers. Dua is one of the most-streamed artists on Spotify. Furthermore, she is the first and only artist to ever manage to reach 4 lead songs with more than 500 million Spotify streams. In the UK, she also topped the charts for 8 weeks this summer with her million-selling hit “One Kiss”. No other artist has topped the century that way. The video for her smash hit single “New Rules” has already been watched more than 1.6 billion times on YouTube.
