The Moment (2026)

A rising pop sensation navigates fame and industry pressures while preparing for her arena tour debut, revealing the transformation of underground culture into mainstream success.

Charli's "Hell Version": Charli XCX described her role in the film as playing "sort of a hell version of myself," suggesting a darkly comedic and exaggerated portrayal of her public persona.
Music Video Roots: Director Aidan Zamiri, making his feature debut, is known for directing music videos, including several for Charli XCX herself. This likely influenced the film's stylish and energetic feel.
From Message to Movie: The idea for The Moment originated from a "word vomit" message Charli XCX sent to Aidan Zamiri during her 2024 "Sweat" tour, capturing her raw feelings about almost achieving everything she wanted.
A24 Record Breaker: The Moment became the fastest-selling limited release in A24's history, with many screenings selling out quickly. The majority of ticket buyers were under 35, demonstrating the film's appeal to a younger audience.
Mockumentary with a Message: While a mockumentary, Charli XCX has called The Moment "fiction, but it's the realest depiction of the music industry that I've ever seen". She wanted to avoid the typical musician documentary tropes of overcoming adversity.
