Phoebe Bridgers has been busy. Last month, she shared her highly anticipated new album Lost Weekend<\/a> and struggled to celebrate the release thanks to appendicitis<\/a>. Now, she’s making her acting debut in Lance Oppenheim’s Primetime, which premiered Friday (Sept. 4) at the Venice Film Festival.<\/p>\n

The singer-songwriter plays a decoy named Del in the To Catch A Predator-themed film, which also stars Robert Pattinson. She earned acclaim in a new review from The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> that says she gives a “a remarkably assured acting debut.” On a panel, Pattinson discussed<\/a> his reaction to Bridgers being considered for the cast: “I didn’t even know Lance and Phoebe were friends before this happened and he was like ‘Why don’t we get Phoebe Bridgers for this?’ And I was like ‘Why don’t we get the Queen?'”<\/p>\n

Attendees say Bridgers contributed a new song for the end credits. There are also rumors of a score with Oneohtrix Point Never, but that remains unconfirmed. It may or may not feature Godflesh’s Justin Broadrick<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the new Oasis documentary Don’t Look Back In Anger<\/a> premiered at the Venice Film Festival as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t even know Lance and Phoebe were friends before this happened and he was like \u2018Why don\u2019t we get Phoebe Bridgers for this?\u2019 And I was like \u2018Why don\u2019t we get the queen?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
