Katy Perry to lead voice cast of animated musical 'Melody'

The Firework singer will also write and perform new songs and help produce the musical adventure, which will be directed and produced by Jeremy Zag.

According to Deadline, Melody is a kind-hearted, insecure singer who must overcome the evil plans of Rose Stellar, a jealous wicked pop queen who has vowed to destroy her.

However, Melody has seven magic musical notes that set her apart and help guide her moral compass.

Perry told the publication that she likes the film's themes of self-discovery and empowerment and hopes the message helps encourage her daughter Daisy to be brave and confident.
