Charli xcx is circling Dakota Johnson’s debut feature length film<\/p>\n
Charli xcx is in talks to join A Tree Is Blue, the upcoming feature debut from Dakota Johnson.<\/p>\n
The film, which begins shooting next month in Los Angeles, is penned by Vanessa Burghardt, Johnson\u2019s co-star from Cha Cha Real Smooth, who is also expected to lead the cast.<\/p>\n
As well as the 33-year-old pop star, who is making a rapid ascent into the world of film, Jessica Alba, 44, is also reported by Deadline to be in negotiations to bag a role.<\/p>\n
The story reportedly follows a young woman on the autism spectrum navigating the summer after high school graduation, seeking freedom and connection beyond the protective bubble of her mother\u2019s care.<\/p>\n
The film is said to have a modest budget under $10 million and support from California\u2019s tax credit scheme.<\/p>\n
Charli’s acting credits include Erupcja, Faces of Death, and I Want Your Sex, as well as co-producing the score for A24\u2019s Mother Mary alongside Jack Antonoff.<\/p>\n
The report that Charli is circling Dakota’s film comes hot off the heels of Kylie Jenner joining the cast of the 360 hitmaker’s new film.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old make-up mogul – who is dating Hollywood star Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet – will appear alongside Charli, and the likes of Alexander Skarsgard, Rachel Sennott, Rosanna Arquette, Jamie Demetriou, Isaac Powell, and Shygirl in The Moment.<\/p>\n
Charli teased details of her latest project on social media, posting the film title on her Instagram page.<\/p>\n
She captioned the image: “based on an original idea by charli xcx.<\/p>\n
“The moment. coming 2026. @a24 @aidanzamiri (sic)”<\/p>\n
Charli is set to lead the star-studded cast and it’s been confirmed that she’ll play a rising pop star navigating “the complexities of fame and industry pressure while preparing for her arena tour debut”.<\/p>\n
