As well as the previously announced contribution from Dua Lipa – set for release tomorrow (26th May) – the impressive line-up includes tracks from Lizzo, HAIM, Charli XCX, Tame Impala and more.
The soundtrack has been teased in an image that sees Margot Robbie dressed in full Barbie attire, holding a newspaper with the names of 17 artists who are all lined-up to take part.
