Miley Cyrus has been tapped to record a new song, “Dream As One,” for the upcoming third installment in director/writer James Cameron’s Avatar series, Fire and Ash, which will arrive in theaters on Dec. 19. The track will be released Nov. 14 through Columbia/Sony.
Cyrus contributed to the song’s music and lyrics in tandem with Andrew Wyatt, Mark Ronson and the Grammy-winning Simon Franglen, who also composed the film score. “Dream As One” will be heard during Fire and Ash‘s end credits and will be featured on its original soundtrack, due Dec. 12.
“Honored to support Avatar: Fire and Ash with an original song I’ve written with Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt,” Cyrus wrote in an Instagram post that teases a portion of the song. “Having been personally affected by fire and being rebuilt from the ashes, this project holds profound meaning for me. Thank you, Jim, for the opportunity to turn that experience into musical medicine. The film’s themes of unity, healing and love resonate deeply within my soul, and to be even a small star in the universe the Avatar family has created is truly a dream come true.”
Fire and Ash stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Kate Winslet and Edie Falco. It’s the follow-up to 2022’s The Way of Water, which was itself the sequel to the 2009 original. Two additional films are expected in 2029 and 2031.
As for Cyrus, she has kept a low profile following the summer release of her ninth album, Something Beautiful, which was accompanied by a musical film of the same name that’s available on Disney+ and Hulu.
