Actress, Rebel Wilson has signed a record deal with Warner Music, with the comedic thespian launching Rebellionaire, her own imprint, responsible for the soundtrack release for her upcoming movie The Deb.
Warner Music reportedly partnered with the multi-hyphenate (born Melanie Elizabeth Bownds) after hearing songs from the forthcoming musical set to begin shooting in October in Australia.
Wilson’s directorial debut will also star the 43-year-old in the leading role and soundtrack singer.
The motion picture will mark the onscreen adaptation of a theatre production that follows three Aussie girls whose lives take a dramatic turn when one of them is expelled from her privileged city school.
In an interview about The Deb, Rebel said “Even though it’s very uniquely Australian, it could have real impact overseas.” “The stage production was a deliberate development step for the film and a way to test the musical.”
Alongside the film, the soundtrack for The Deb is scheduled for a 2024 release.
