Can't Catch Me Now is a song by Olivia Rodrigo, released on November 3, 2023, as part of the soundtrack for the film The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. The track was co-written and produced by Rodrigo and her frequent collaborator Dan Nigro.
The song is written from the perspective of Lucy Gray Baird, a central character in the film portrayed by Rachel Zegler. Rodrigo drew inspiration from a pivotal scene featuring an aerial view of birds weaving among trees, aiming to capture the essence of Lucy Gray's resilience and spirit. She described the songwriting process as a blend of character work and personal reflection, stating, "I saw bits of myself in her; I admired her resilience, so I tried to embody all that and put it into the song."
