Olivia Rodrigo is a songbird with something to say. The "GUTS" singer-songwriter has recorded the featured song in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Lionsgate and Rodrigo revealed Wednesday. "Soooo beyond excited that I got the opportunity to write a song for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes," the pop superstar wrote on Instagram. A snippet of the track, titled "Can't Catch Me Now," can be heard in a 60-second sneak peek (below) before the full song releases November 3 on Spotify and Apple Music. 

The 17-song Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes album, also featuring the single "The Hanging Tree (Lucy Gray's version)" performed by star Rachel Zegler, will be available to download or stream on Nov. 17.

"From the very beginning of this franchise, we have been fortunate to attract some of the world's most talented recording artists whose music has accentuated and complemented the drama of the films while underscoring the emotional weight carried by the characters," director Francis Lawrence said in a statement. "With her highly charged lyrics and urgent voice, Olivia Rodrigo taps into all of that as much as any artist today. She's an absolute thrill to work with and we couldn't be more excited that her music is a part of the movie."

Songbirds and Snakes follows Lucy Gray Baird (Zegler), a tribute from Capitol 12 who is mentored by an 18-year-old Coriolanus "Coryo" Snow (Tom Blyth), the future President of Panem; the cast includes Lucretius "Lucky" Flickerman (Jason Schwartzman), weathercaster-turned-first television host for the 10th Hunger Games; Coriolanus' cousin, Tigris Snow (Hunter Schafer); Coriolanus' good friend, Sejanus Plinth (Josh Andrès Rivera), who coined the "Coryo" nickname; Dr. Volumnia Gaul (Viola Davis), head Gamemaker of the 10th Hunger Games; and Casca "Cas" Highbottom (Peter Dinklage), dean of the Capitol Academy credited as the architect of the Hunger Games.
