It comes after her recent tenth studio album Midnights broke a string of records, including becoming Spotify’s most streamed album in a single day.

The film’s director, Ryan Coogler, previously said she had been “very clear” her attachment to the project had been in honour of its late star Chadwick Boseman.
The Barbadian singer last released solo music in 2016 with her eighth studio album Anti.
Lady Gaga (36) previously won the award for best original song in 2018 for Shallow, from the remake of A Star Is Born co-starring her and Bradley Cooper.

Maverick sees Hollywood star Tom Cruise reprise the role of US naval aviator Pete Mitchell and was released 36 years after the 1986 original.
