McCartney Lines Up Top Female Singer For Film Role

Sir Paul has told XFM he's making an animated movie featuring a female singer - and he dropped a heavy hint about who he wants to play her.


Fresh off the back of his song for the video game Destiny, Sir Paul McCartney has been talking to XFM about another new venture: he's making an animated film.

"It's going to be called High In The Clouds," the ex-Beatle told us. "It's based on a kids' book that me and a couple of guys did a few years back."

The book tells the story of a homeless squirrel called Wirral who travels to a mysterious place called Animalia.

Sir Paul said: "I'm writing the music for characters in the film, one of whom is a female rock star who kind of rules this city."

And he admitted to our own Matt Dyson that he's already approached a female singer to play the part.
