The celebrated musician is preparing for a substantial big screen appearance in 2026, starting with the mockumentary titled The Moment.
In the film, she embodies what she calls as a twisted version of her public image.
It’s the realest depiction of the music industry that I’ve ever encountered, the star stated.
She elaborated in a conversation: It’s not a tour documentary, but the idea stemmed from the demand to make one.
The initial preview, released on Thursday, blends actual recordings from her live performances with imagined backstage scenes.
The mockumentary is overseen and co-authored by the director, who shared that the story focuses on a scenario where the singer took completely different paths in the marketing of her hugely successful record Brat.
The mockumentary is a single one of several upcoming film appearances for the musician, who recently featured in three cinematic festival entries recently.
Additionally played herself in the comedy series Overcompensating.
The following year will also see the artist alongside Olivia Wilde in erotic drama I Want Your Sex, Natalie Portman in art world thriller The Gallerist, and Barbie Ferreira in terror reimagining Faces of Death.
She also joined to feature in the star’s directorial debut A Tree in Blue.
I’m deeply appreciating my cinematic path, the performer shared. I feel very, very inspired right now in that field, and I only ever choose to take on things that inspire me.
February will also see the release of the filmmaker’s interpretation of Wuthering Heights, which will feature fresh tracks from Charli.
Additionally, she will provide music for the film Mother Mary, featuring Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel, scheduled for release in the coming year.
The mockumentary is set to premiere on 30 January.
