Lorde curated the soundtrack to the film personally, which features an all-star cast of artists and is to be released in November, with further details to follow soon.

‘Yellow Flicker Beat’ is the first new music from Lorde since her multiple platinum-selling, landmark debut album Pure Heroine, which established her as an international phenomenon and one of the defining and astute voices of her generation and todays music landscape.
