"Charli XCX's new movie The Moment will premiere at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival just ahead of its January 30 theatrical release. She's just shared the trailer which you can watch now. Directed by Aidan Zamiri, The Moment is a mockumentary with Charli playing a fictionalized version of herself as she "navigates the complexities of fame and industry pressure while preparing for her arena tour debut.""
"The film also stars Rosanna Arquette as a record label exec hoping to extend "Brat Summer" forever, Alexander Skarsgård as the hotshot director hired to make her concert film, and various hangers-on and sycophants played by Hailey Benton Gates, Kate Berlant, Jaime Demetriou, Kylie Jenner, Isaac Powell, and Rachel Sennott. It's hard not to think of Spinal Tap when Charli is asked to go inside a giant Brat lighter that's about to be ignited."
