Produced by none other than Marshmello, “WOW” notably figures prominently in a pivotal sequence during Work It. The song plays during a transformative moment and powerful dance routine for protagonist Quinn Ackerman (Sabrina Carpenter). The film is streaming now on NETFLIX.
The song has eclipsed over 40 million Spotify streams to date and earned widespread acclaim. Upon release, Idolator dubbed it, “easily her best yet,” and Chicago Tribune predicted, “‘Wow’ may help Larsson become as famous in America as she is everywhere else.”
