Robbie Williams gives promising update on new album

Robbie Williams has given an update on his new album.

The ‘Let Me Entertain You’ hitmaker has confirmed plans for his next record – which will be his 13th and first since 2019’s ‘The Christmas Present’ – are still going ahead, but he and his team were “waiting” to find out the release for his ‘Better Man’ biopic before dropping the LP.

Speaking at a screening of his new movie in the US, he told fans: “I’ve got an album coming too, we have been waiting to know when exactly the film is coming out before we put it out.”

The 50-year-old star teased other ventures also in the pipeline once the film gets released in December.

He added: “I am building hotels, I want to build a university, I have got my own clothing line coming out, I have got drinks.

“I am going to be busier than I have ever been.”

Earlier this year, the ‘Angels’ singer revealed he has “written loads of songs” and is feeling more “ambitious” than ever.

He told Virgin Radio: “I’ve got loads of plans. I’ve written loads of songs, I’ve got my film [Better Man] at the end of this year and I’m doing Hyde Park in the summer.

“I have never been busier, I’ve never been as ambitious as I am right now. I am full of purpose and I am loving life.”

Since the release of ‘The Christmas Present’, Robbie dropped his dance side project Lufthaus record ‘Visions, Vol. 1’ last year, as well as his greatest hits collection XXV in 2022.

He has praised The 1975 frontman matty Healy for his willingness to push boundaries in music.

He wrote on Instagram: “I really like Matt [because] he’s unhinged, super smart, super talented and willing to upset. Upsetting for a cause. The cause being a complicated inner life a rebellious streak and boredom.

“I’ve gotta get some of that energy back in my musical life. Like I say ‘so many people to offend’ I hope I have time to fit them all in. It’s time to take the p*** again… and im looking forward to it. (sic)”
