Charli XCX, Miike Team For New Horror Film

Charli XCX, following her Grammy-winning album 'Brat,' will star in and produce an upcoming horror film directed by renowned Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike, known for cult hits like 'Audition' and 'Ichi the Killer.' The untitled project, written by Ross Evans, will be produced under Charli's Studio365 banner, which also backs her A24 collaboration 'The Moment.' This marks Charli XCX's latest foray into acting and producing, alongside upcoming projects such as '100 Nights of Hero,' 'Faces of Death,' and 'The Gallerist.' Miike's reputation for bold, genre-blending cinema suggests the film will explore extreme horror themes.

The collaboration illustrates Charli XCX's evolution into a multi-hyphenate creative force in both music and film.
