Marvel Releases ‘Battle Royale’ and ‘Choir’ Versions of Madonna’s ‘Like a Prayer’ From ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’


Marvel has released an EP with two different takes on Madonna's 1989 hit 'Like a Prayer,' including a 'Battle Royale' and 'Choir' versions.

After extensively featuring Madonna ‘s 1989 hit “Like a Prayer” in the film’s official trailer as well as prominently in the Ryan Reynolds/Hugh Jackman buddy superhero flick, the studio released two new versions of the track over the weekend. The Like a Prayer EP features the original version, as well as film composer Rob Simonsen mixing the joyous song with even more choir voices, a stirring organ line and dramatic strings. Last month, director Shawn Levy described the process of securing the rights to license the song for the film, which included a personal plea to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend.
