Florence + The Machine tease imminent return with enigmatic teaser campaign

EXCLUSIVE: The cat is out of the bag.

Chris Willman Music WriterCelebrity comebacks don’t often go exactly as planned, but it helps when the planner is someone with as much of a knack for military precision and as broad a sense of the big cultural picture as a Rick Rubin or a Brandi Carlile. Rubin, of course, built Johnny Cash from a casino-playing relic back into some kind of god with the records he produced for the Man in Black in the ’90s and 2000s, and Carlile had the idea she could do something like that with her own personal heroine, Tanya Tucker, in 2019.

Fifty years into her career, Tanya Tucker hates the word “comeback.” With over 20 studio albums and a roguish outlaw image to her name, Tucker’s carefree, defiant spirit continues to inspire musicians both within and outside the country music scene. Kathlyn Horan’s documentary captures this influence only in the most surface-level fashion.

Florence Pugh may be taking on a big new role!

Florence Pugh is in early talks to join the cast of “Dune: Part Two,” according to an individual with knowledge of the project.Denis Villeneuve will return to direct the sequel, which is set for release in October 2023.As implied by the final scene of the film, “Dune: Part Two” will see Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) continue to train his powers of foresight and mind control under the aid of his mother Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) and the Fremen on Arrakis. Chani (Zendaya) becomes both a lover and a guide to Paul as he slowly grows in power among the Fremen as their prophesized messiah; and considering how Jessica’s role was expanded by Denis Villeneuve to give her more emotional depth, it wouldn’t be surprising for “Part Two” to make Chani into a hero in her own right.The foresight scenes Paul experiences throughout “Dune” foreshadow much of what is to come in the sequel, including a bloody war with the evil House Harkonnen over control of Arrakis.

Florence +The Machine has said that wanting a family “might not be as simple” for her “as it is [her] male counterparts.”Welch, who returned with new single ‘King’ this week, made the comment in a statement that accompanied the release.“As an artist, I never actually thought about my gender that much. I just got on with it,” Welch said in the statement.She continued: “I was as good as the men and I just went out there and matched them every time.“But now, thinking about being a woman in my thirties and the future, I suddenly feel this tearing of my identity and my desires. To be a performer but also to want a family might not be as simple for me as it is for my male counterparts.”Welch continued: “I had modelled myself almost exclusively on male performers, and for the first time I felt a wall come down between me and my idols as I have to make decisions they did not.”The new song’s lyrics also allude to this when she sings “We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children/ About the world ending and the scale of my ambition/ And how much is art really worth…I am no mother, I am no bride, I am king.”While the next Florence + The Machine album has still yet to be officially announced, ‘King’ marks the band’s first new music release since 2021’s ‘Call Me Cruella’, which featured in the Disney film Cruella.They are also set to make their live comeback this summer, playing a host of European headline festival sets.
