It's no Destiny's Child, but let's not hold that against them

Charlie's Angels reunion as Lucy Liu receives star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

Ariana Grande, Lana Del Rey and Miley Cyrus have teased a starry collaboration for the soundtrack of the forthcoming Charlie’s Angels reboot.

The somewhat unlikely trio took to social media last night to confirm their involvement in the track, with Cyrus first tweeting “WE ARE COMING!” before tagging the film and her collaborators, before being joined by Grande and Del Rey.

The pair both posted the same teaser video on their respective Instagrams, showing an animation of the new Charlie’s Angels logo while a circus-like instrumental track plays in the background. The word “Uploading…” appears beneath.

The collaboration follows in the footsteps of the original Charlie’s Angels movie starring Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu, which recruited Destiny’s Child for its theme song. Their track, the iconic anthem "Independent Women Part 1" was an international smash, topping the charts in the UK, the US and Brazil.

The Charlie’s Angels reboot, directed by actress and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks, stars Kristen Stewart, Aladdin’s Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska and will be released on 29 November.

Speaking to Variety earlier this year, Stewart addressed fears that the reboot would be a dour affair. “At one point I think we said it was woke and grounded, and everyone was like, ‘Wait, is it still fun?’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah dude, obviously, it’s ‘Charlie’s Angels'”, she said.

“It’s funny and weird... so hopefully people have fun watching it.”
