Zayn Malik Writes Music, Co-stars and Performs Duet in '10 Lives' Animated Film

Zayn Malik brings joy, depth and a very beautiful sentiment to the animated film '10 Lives' by not only writing new music for it, and performing alongside "Bridgerton" actress Simone Ashley, but also by playing tough-guy twins Cameron and Kirk in the film that tells the story of a pampered and selfish cat who learns a life-changing lesson.

• Zayn Malik will write new music for the upcoming animated film '10 Lives', including a duet with 'Bridgerton' star Simone Ashley. They will also both star in the film, with Malik playing tough-guy twins Cameron and Kirk, and Ashley voicing a student named Rose.
• Malik is set to serve as an executive music producer for '10 Lives', overseeing its musical creative direction. This new role allowed him to immerse himself in a narrative that he hadn't dictated and bring the characters’ emotions into his music.
• '10 Lives' tells the story of a pampered and selfish cat who, after losing his ninth life, begs for a second chance to prove he can learn from his mistakes. The soulful narrative will be supported by voice work from stars like Bill Nighy, Mo Gilligan, Sophie Okonedo, Dylan Llewellyn and Jeremy Swift.
• Leading figures in the industry commend Malik's multi-talented contributions (songwriting, acting and vocal skills) to '10 Lives', stating that he brought joy, emotion, and depth to the film while connecting and highlighting all of its important themes.
• Despite focusing on '10 Lives', Malik is concurrently working on his next studio album for Mercury Records, suggesting the possibility of more new music on the horizon, separate from his contributions to the movie.
