Pop artist The Weeknd in The Dawn FM Experience.

People will be able to see the movie in two weeks. There's been a lot of talk about if the sequel has anything to offer beyond gorgeous visuals and blue people with dreads. If I get a pop star to do music for the film, what would it be like?

The Weeknd's name is attached to The Way of Water. On December 16th, the same day that The Way of Water will be released, the artist broke the news on his social media accounts. The Weeknd got into the soundtrack game with The Hunger Games: Catching Fire and 50 Shades of Grey, but this is the first time he has appeared on a soundtrack for a big film. He has done music for a number of films and TV shows.

It is still noteworthy that The Weeknd is doing music for the movie. Disney was able to get her to deliver her first music in six years where she wasn't a guest star on another person's track. It feels like it has been awhile since Disney locked down two big-name artists in a row. It makes you wonder who else is waiting in the wings to provide vocals for some of their big hits.
