Anne Hathaway's first song from her new pop star movie Mother Mary was released on Thursday.

In Burial, Hathaway hits a sultry note as she sings, 'I'll kill you softly / So sweetly, kindly / I'm mesmerizing, it's terrifying’ along with the repeated refrain, ‘This is your burial,' according to JustJared.

The song was co-written by the actress, 43, Charli XCX and George Daniel, who is Charli's husband and drummer for The 1975. Jack Antonoff also has writing credit on the synth-pop track.

A24's Mother Mary is described as 'psychosexual pop melodrama' and features Hathaway as a chaotic pop icon.

It revolves around a tumultuous reunion between the singer and her former costume designer, played by Michaela Coel.

The film is directed by David Lowery and features other original songs by Charli XCX, and Antonoff, along with FKA Twigs. Burial is the only song co-written and sung by Hathaway, who also stars in the upcoming The Devil Wears Prada 2.

A24 released the song plus a 30-second YouTube video from Mother Mary entitled Greatest Hits (Official Album Teaser).

In the video, Hathaway is depicted as Mother Mary performing Burial and other songs on stage to a crowd.

The movie co-stars Michaela Coel, Hunter Schafer, Atheena Frizzell, Kaia Gerber, Jessica Brown Findlay, Alba Baptista, Isaura Barbé-Brown, Sian Clifford and FKA twigs.

The movie's synopsis reads, 'Long-buried wounds rise to the surface when iconic pop star Mother Mary reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer Sam Anselm (Coel, 38) on the eve of her comeback performance.'

In Vogue's August 2025 cover story, Hathaway described her experience working on the film.

'I had to submit to being a beginner. The humility of that — showing up every day knowing you’re going to suck. And it has to be okay. You’re not "bad." You’re just a beginner,' she told the outlet.

'Getting to that mindset — I had to shed some things that were hard to shed. It was welcome. But it was hard, the way transformational experiences can be hard.'

Vogue reported that Hathaway’s pop star character is a 'Gaga-Taylor Swift hybrid' who, when she hits a lull in her career, reaches out to a friend 'who helped craft her all-consuming public persona in the first place.'

The song and the video are the latest tidbits since December when A24 dropped the first trailer for the movie, which will arrive in theaters in limited release on April 17 before going nationwide on April 24.

The trailer shows Hathaway as the troubled singer performing in front of a stadium of people while dressed in dazzling leotards and gowns created by the film’s costume designer Bina Daigeler, who also worked on Mulan and Tar.

At one point, Hathaway was seen wearing a large spiked tiara and at another, she boasted two-tone platinum locks.

Mother Mary isn't Hathaway's first experience singing for a role. She famously sang I Dreamed a Dream and other songs in the 2012 movie musical Les Miserables.
