Blondie’s iconic track “Call Me” is featured in the first teaser trailer for the new Supergirl film.

Milly Alcock stars as the titular Supergirl/Kara Zor-El in the second film in the new DC Universe. The trailer starts off by showing Kara’s everyday world, as the Blondie track kicks in. 

The movie follows what happens “when an unexpected and ruthless adversary strikes too close to home,” according to the trailer’s official synopsis. “Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, reluctantly joins forces with an unlikely companion on an epic, interstellar journey of vengeance and justice.”

Blondie shared a post about the trailer in an Instagram Story. They also shared artwork by artist Butcher Billy that imagines Blondie frontwoman Debbie Harry as Supergirl, as well as a video of Alcock being asked what she’s listening to. Her response? “Call Me” by Blondie.

Supergirl flies into theaters on June 26, 2026.

“Call Me,” produced and composed by Giorgio Moroder, with lyrics by Harry, originally appeared in the 1980 Richard Gere film American Gigolo. After being released as a single, it went on to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, spending six weeks in the top spot.

The Rolling Stones have teamed with DJ producer Fatboy Slim for an official mash-up of their 1965 classic “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” and Fatboy Slim’s 1998 track “The Rockafeller Skank.”

“Satisfaction Skank” is out now via digital outlets, with the artists also releasing an official video for the track.

“Big thanks to @therollingstones for just being the Rolling Stones (…and also for making this happen),” Fatboy Slim wrote on Instagram.

While this is the first official release of the song, the mash-up certainly isn’t new. An unofficial version of the remix has been circulating during DJ sets and on bootleg recordings for years, but had been kept from official release because The Stones’ management wouldn’t agree to let the “Satisfaction” sample be used.

The guitar Kurt Cobain famously played during Nirvana‘s 1993 MTV Unplugged performance has been donated to the Royal College of Music in London.

The 1959 Martin D-18E was purchased at auction in 2020 for a record-breaking $6 million by Peter Freedman, founder of the Australian company Rode Microphones. The sale marked the highest price for any guitar sold at auction.

The guitar previously went up for display at the Royal College of Music in an exhibit that concluded in November. Future plans for the guitar include an international touring exhibition set for 2026.

“I am delighted to gift this iconic guitar to the Royal College of Music so that they might realize the guitar’s value and profile for the benefit of young musicians at the RCM and reach people around the world,” Freedman says in a statement. “This gift is dedicated to my father Henry who loved music and London, and it’s an honor for me to support the next generation of musicians.”

“The Royal College of Music is deeply grateful to Peter Freedman for his incredible generosity in gifting the College Kurt Cobain’s Martin D-18E guitar,” adds Royal College of Music director James Williams. “This asset opens future opportunities to share the Kurt Cobain Unplugged exhibition with an international audience; it is also emblematic of Peter’s unstinting support for the performing arts and his steadfast belief in the power of education to transform lives.”
