The official soundtrack album for the biographical drama Maria. The album features restored audio from soprano Maria Callas (played by Angelina Jolie in the film) performing extracts of nine operas that appear in the movie, as well as numbers from Medea, I Puritani, Anna Bolena and Otello. Maria is directed by Pablo Larraín, written by Steven Knight and stars Angelina Jolie, Pierfrancesco Favino, Alba Rohrwacher, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Valeria Golino, Haluk Bilginer and Stephen Ashfield. The movie follows the American-Greek soprano as she retreats to Paris after a glamorous and tumultuous life in the public eye and reimagines Callas in her final days as the diva reckons with her identity and life. The drama, which premiered at this year’s Venice Film Festival, will be released in select theaters on November 27 before making its streaming debut on December 11 on Netflix
