After announcing that she would headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show, the singer is reportedly readying new music for the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack.
According to reports, the Barbadian beauty has recorded two new songs for the upcoming Marvel superhero picture.
The new songs she's dropping reportedly include the end credits song, but this should be taken with a grain of salt as neither Marvel nor Rih has confirmed her involvement in the potential blockbuster, reports aceshowbiz.com.
The original soundtrack to the Ryan Coogler-directed film, Black Panther: The Album, was curated by Kendrick Lamar and featured original music from Lamar, along with SZA, The Weeknd, Future, Khalid, Swae Lee, and more. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified platinum.
Insiders say the sequel will also be accompanied by an “inspired by” album to be released via Marvel/Disney and Rihanna’s label Westbury Road via Roc Nation/Def Jam.
There were previous reports that RiRi would be cast in the sequel to the 2018 superhero blockbuster, but that rumor was later debunked.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, starring Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, and Winston Duke, hits theaters on Nov. 11.
The 'Black Panther' sequel is directed by Ryan Coogler, with Lupita Nyong'o, Letitia Wright, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira, Winston Duke and Martin Freeman among the returning cast.
The Black Panther news comes as Rihanna gears up for her long-awaited return to music. She will headline the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show in February amid the impending release of her ninth studio album, her first since’s 2016’s Anti.
Further, fueling the speculation of her new music, Rihanna has just changed her TikTok profile picture.
The 34-year-old updated her page on the video-sharing platform with an image of her wearing a bright yellow sweatshirt along with sporty sunglasses.
The avatar shows the new mother with her long dark hair arranged over one side of her shoulders.
While Rihanna has 5.7 million followers on the platform, she has not posted any video so far. Typically, when entertainers change their social media profile icon, they're gearing up for a new project, which has the Navy excited for what's ahead.
Additionally, it was announced that her Savage x Fenty fashion show will return to Amazon Prime Video for a fourth installment on Nov. 9.
