In 1980, she made a cameo appearance as the singing nun, Sister Angelina, in the comedy-disaster movie Airplane!. Toward the end of the decade, she recorded "Different Worlds" (the theme from a short-lived TV sitcom entitled "Angie"). These two songs (along with "The Morning After") led the media to call McGovern "the Disaster Theme Queen." McGovern continued touring and recording albums and movie songs (including "Can You Read My Mind", the love theme from the 1978 film Superman) throughout the decade of the seventies. The former (though not a hit) won an Oscar, and the latter received an Oscar nomination.

In 1974, she recorded two movie themes: "We May Never Love Like This Again" (from the disaster film The Towering Inferno, in which she made a short appearance) and "Wherever Love Takes Me" (from the British disaster film Gold).

That year, McGovern was hired (sight unseen) to record the song which led to her signing with 20th Century Records. Her singing caught the attention of Russ Regan (who was the head of 20th Century Records at the time) in 1972 when he heard a demo she had recorded; at the same time, he was searching a singer to record "The Morning After" (theme from The Poseidon Adventure) for release as a record.
