The cowboy. Photo: Burak Cingi/Redferns Mitski warning us about a man? It must be International Women’s Month. Mitski blessed us with a new track today, “The Baddy Man.” It’s the first single from her her forthcoming soundtrack to the graphic novel This Is Where We Fall by Chris Miskiewicz and Vincent Kings. The sci-fi series deals with science, faith, and that innately human belief in something bigger than ourselves. For us, that’s Mitski. Her voice booms over the track’s country-western flair as she warns about the Baddy Man “creeping and a-crawling.” “What those dead men say that they do / Will never be the absolute truth / ’Cause the Baddy Man is creeping through the alleys of your mind,” she croons over twangy strings. In 2020, Mitski dropped “Cop Car,” her first solo release since her 2018 album, Be the Cowboy . Mitski’s soundtrack is available for preorder on vinyl and cassette along with the graphic novel, out May 5.

Saturday AM Update: Updated with NYC B.O. data Even with three new wide releases at this weekend’s box office, and New York City finally reopening, numbers still aren’t at pre-pandemic levels, but there’s a lot of drama going on. Let’s start with Disney ’s theatrical day and date Disney+ release of animated pic Raya and the Last Dragon which looks to be leading the weekend with a studio-reported $2.5M Friday and an industry weekend estimate of $8.3M at 2,045 theaters.

Raya ‘s opening weekend is also less than Croods: A New Age ‘s 3-day opening over its Thanksgiving stretch which posted $9.7M. And that’s definitely because Disney did not reach a deal with No. 3 chain Cinemark, as we first told you (thus, losing around 250 bookings), Harkins, and … [Read more...] about ‘Raya And The Last Dragon’ Debuting To $8M As Pic Hits Disney+ & NYC Reopens: Why The Industry Is Greatly Concerned
