Olivia Rodrigo Unveils Pensive ‘Can’t Catch Me Now’ Music Video

Olivia Rodrigo is here, she’s there, she’s everywhere — and now has a music video to go along with her powerful The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes track, “Can’t Catch Me Now.”

The clip, which was released on Monday (Nov. 13), finds the singer leaving a cottage and wandering through a field as she sings about her omnipresence in someone else’s life. “But I’m in the trees, I’m in the breeze / My footsteps on the ground / You’ll see my face in every place / But you can’t catch me now,” she muses in the chorus.

“Can’t Catch Me Now,” which dropped earlier this month, serves as the opening track to the 17-song film soundtrack due out November 17 via Geffen Records, which is also the date the Hunger Games film hits theaters. The soundtrack includes songs performed in the film by The Hunger Games star Rachel Zegler, as well as tracks by young artists in the folk/Americana genre.

The upcoming movie stars Zegler alongside Tom Blyth, Peter Dinklage, Hunter Schafer, Josh Andrés Rivera, Jason Schwartzman and Viola Davis, and follows the story of Coriolanus (Blyth), who is the last hope for his failing lineage, the Snow family that has fallen from grace in a post-war Capitol.
