The album will not be released until next month, but on Friday the single "Bracken Road" was released, a song about farming, meadows and mountains in South Wales, the place where the now 88-year-old Hopkins spent his childhood.
Music was my first passion, my first dream, I've been writing music my whole life, Anthony Hopkins tells The Guardian .
However, this is not the first time that the successful Hollywood actor has ventured into music; he has previously released, among other things, "Composer", an album of classical pieces.
Hopkins' music on the new album is performed by the Philharmonia Orchestra under the direction of conductor Gustavo Dudamel.
