Lady Gaga to release song for ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ soundtrack

The singer Lady Gaga announced this Wednesday (27th), that it will release an exclusive track for the soundtrack of “Top Gun: Maverick”. The song is titled “Hold My Hand” and it arrives on digital platforms on May 3rd.

“When I wrote this song, I still didn’t quite understand the multiple layers it played through within the heart of the movie, my own psyche, and the world we’re living in. I’ve been working on it for years, perfecting it, trying to make it ours”, declared the singer when revealing the cover of the single on her social networks. Check out:

According to the protagonist of “Casa Gucci”, the song was written with the intention of expressing “a deep human need to understand the other and to be understood”. “But if you decide / I’ll walk this life with you / I won’t let it go all the way”says the excerpt of the song released by Gaga.

In the new movie, Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is the mentor of a new class of professionals, which is getting smaller every day because drones have become so popular and economical in recent years. For those who remember the first feature, released in 1986, the fighter pilot was on the verge of leaving the fighter class after not following the required standards, but after a twist he managed to graduate with the other colleagues and become an instructor. .

Starring in the feature alongside Cruise, the cast also has Miles Teller (“The Offer”), Glen Powell (“Stars Beyond Time”), Jennifer Connelly (“Tomorrow Express”), Jon Hamm (“On the Run”), Ed Harris (“The Lost Daughter”) and Lewis Pullman (“The Strangers: Prey at Night”).

The film is directed by Joseph Kosinski (“Tron – Legacy”) and the script was signed by Peter Craig, Justin Marks and Eric Warren Singerand was rewritten by Christopher McQuarrie. “Top Gun: Maverick” hits theaters on May 26 and will be the big honoree at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, which takes place between May 17 and 28.
