Zayn Malik Featured in 10 Lives

Nov 3, 2023 | 6:00 AM

New original songs by Zayn Malik will be featured in the upcoming animated movie 10 Lives, in which the former One Direction singer voices two characters. He’s also an executive producer on the movie — about a spoiled and selfish cat who takes his many lives for granted — and is overseeing its musical direction. Malik’s songs will include a duet with Bridgerton actress Simone Ashely, who co-stars in the flim along with Bill Nighy, Sophie Okonedo, and others. “While creating music for 10 Lives, I was able to immerse myself in a narrative that I hadn’t dictated and able to bring the characters’ emotions into the music rather than my own,” Malik said in a statement. “I really enjoyed writing specifically to bring them all to life. It’s a film that’s not only fun to watch but has a very beautiful sentiment for people of all ages.”
