Singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus says she goes to filmmakers to pitch her music and that’s how she got to make the “Dream As One” track for James Cameron’s latest “Avatar” instalment.
ย
Cameron’s film, “Avatar: Fire and Ash”, which is the third instalment in the franchise, was released in theatres on December 19.
ย
The “Flowers” singer recalled meeting the filmmaker at the 2024 D23 Expo.
ย
“I kind of throw it out there as I always do…I already knew the answer to, โSo what have you been up to?โ I know he’s been up to ‘Avatar’ for a very long time,” she told the entertainment magazine People in an interview.
ย
โJust lemme know if you ever need any music,โโ as she recalls โ came at just the right time in the development of the third of five planned ‘Avatar’ films.
ย
ย
โIt just kind of organically happened…James actually calls us โLegends in law.”
ย
The singer admitted she went to the Oscars 2025 just to pitch her music to the filmmakers.
ย
“Thatโs why I went to the Oscars this year. Everybody who came up and introduced themselves, I said, โWell, if you need any music, Iโm around,” she said.
ย
Cyrus recalled making “Beautiful That Way” for “The Last Showgirlโ.
ย
“I did the same thing to Jamie Lee Curtis…That’s how I ended up doing ‘Last Showgirl’ and now being a part of ‘Avatar’. I really feel myself attached to songs. There’s certain songs that even if they were written for the film or just a song used in the film, like โI Will Always Love You,โ you immediately think of the movie itself, and they become embedded,” she added.
