Charli XCX is preparing for a significant cinematic appearance in 2026, kicking off with the fictional documentary titled The Moment.
Throughout the movie, she embodies what she refers to as a dark version of herself.

She elaborated in a discussion: This isn’t a concert film, but the idea stemmed from the expectation to create one.
