The singer, 33, appeared on an episode of Quenlin Blackwell's Feeding Starving Celebrities series on Sunday, Feb. 22, where they chatted about Charli's career path.

"Do you want to act more?" Blackwell asked. Charli enthusiastically replied, "Yes, are you kidding? I want to quit music, babe, and act."

Blackwell pointed out that Charli did a lot with her 2024 album, Brat, which won a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Album, and has worked hard in music long before that.

"What else is there to do?" Charli added.

The two friends then discussed their dream projects.

"You know what I really want to do? I made a TikTok about this. An ultimate it-girl Final Destination," the "365" singer shared.

In the May 2025 video, Charli names Rachel Sennott, Alex Consani, Gabbriette, Romy Mars, Blackwell, and herself as possible cast members for the horror idea.

"I namechecked you in it," she told Blackwell on the series. "We're all just running around being so hot, but being killed in the craziest ways."

Charli played herself in The Moment, a mockumentary about her experience during the Brat release. Directed by Aidan Zamiri, the film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on Jan. 22.

The cast included Rosanna Arquette, Jamie Demetriou, Kate Berlant, Alexander Skarsgård, as well as a special cameo from Kylie Jenner.

“I would like to think I'm not as much of a nightmare as Charli in the film, but my real managers are in the audience and they probably know the true answer to that," Charli shared at the Utah festival.

Additionally, Charli will join Olivia Wilde and Cooper Hoffman in Gregg Araki's upcoming movie, I Want Your Sex, and will appear in a horror film titled Faces of Death.

Outside of acting, she has contributed to the film world in other ways. She helmed the soundtrack for 2026's Wuthering Heights starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, including hit "Chains of Love."

She is also working on music for Mother Mary, where Anne Hathaway plays a pop star.
