David Byrne and Hayley Williams to collaborate on new song for Netflix's ‘The Twits'
David Byrne and Hayley Williams are teaming up for an original song, 'Open the Door,' featured in Netflix's upcoming animated adaptation of Roald Dahl's The Twits, which is set to premiere on October 17. The collaboration marks another creative partnership between the Talking Heads frontman and the Paramore singer, who have previously covered each other's songs and are set to appear on Byrne's forthcoming album Who Is the Sky? 'Open the Door' will play during the end credits of The Twits, while Byrne has also written and produced three original songs for the film—'We're Not Like Ev'ryone Else,' 'Lullaby,' and 'The Problem Is You'—all performed by the cast. Speaking about the project, Byrne said he was drawn to the story's playful exploration of 'dreadful characters,' adding that he invited Williams to collaborate after her lyrical ideas were inspired by the story. Williams called the experience 'surreal' and expressed her enthusiasm for working on a film based on her favorite Roald Dahl book. Directed by Phil Johnston (Ralph Breaks the Internet), The Twits follows the titular characters—described as the 'meanest, smelliest, nastiest people on earth'—as they clash with a family of magical Muggle-Wumps and two brave children. The film's cast includes Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Ryan Lopez, Timothy Simons, Nicole Byer, Jason Mantzoukas, Alan Tudyk, Mark Proksch, and others. Johnny Vegas and Margo Martindale voice the Twits, alongside Emilia Clarke and Natalie Portman in undisclosed roles. Produced by Johnston, Maggie Malone, and Daisy May West, with animation by Jellyfish Pictures, the film is part of Netflix's multi-project deal involving Dahl's works. Previous adaptations include Matilda the Musical and Wes Anderson's The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.

The cast also includes Dave Franco as Jonah and Scott Eastwood. Yesterday Paramount Pictures unveiled the official poster for the film with the trailer set to release today. Since a streaming release remains uncertain, viewers fear legal controversies tied to Hoover's previous adaptation may further complicate prospects.
