'El Mal' was named Best Original Song at the Academy Awards on Sunday (02.03.25).
The track - which was performed in 'Emilia Perez' by cast members Zoe Saldana and Karla Sofia Gascon - scooped the accolade ahead of 'Mi Camino' from the film, as well as 'The Journey' from 'The Six triple Eight', 'Like a Bird' from 'Sing Sing', and 'Never Too Late' from 'Elton John: Never Too Late', and co-writer Camille hoped the song could show how music is a "force for good" in the world".
