Barbara Streisand has a new duets album and she recruited some big name Hollywood stars to be a part of it. The upcoming 39th album is called Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway. Streisand, the stage and screen legend, enlisted the vocal help of notable celebrity singers like Hugh Jackman and Jamie Foxx to create modern renditions of Broadway classics like "Any Moment Now" from Into the Woods or "Climb E'ry Mountain" from The Sound of Music. She also wrangled Star Wars actress Daisy Ridley and Oscar winner Anne Hathaway. Streisand said "I wanted to work with some women on this album and I thought well, give them a little character, have them act scenes, so I have to have good actresses who can sing."
