Charli xcx is coming to a theater near you. The singer is about to make her feature film acting debut in Erupcja, and just stepped out for the film's world premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival.
Her look? A completely sheer little black dress, paired with a smokey eye, black heels, and a shoulder bag.
Erupcja stars Charli as Bethany, who gets a visit from her childhood friend Nel ahead of Nel's engagement. Asked about working Charli in her first lead acting role, director Pete Ohs told Deadline. "And I did one other interview with her, and as I’m doing this, we’ve talked as much as we’ve talked, but there’s still stories and things that I hadn’t actually really clocked. And on this movie was the most days she had spent on set for a film."
He added that Charli wanted to do something "against type" and play a sweet shy character— though, "she does start out shy, but then she reveals that she does have some, you know, Brat within her, because I guess … once you go Brat, you don’t go back."
He continued, "But it it was really cool that was what I was so glad to hear that when she gave me that response that she’s interested in doing that, I think that just again sort of speaks to her awareness of herself, her interest in trying new things, challenging, growing, learning and just intuition about what is interesting and what is cool, that perhaps we have received a lot of Charli xcx and perhaps that she has more to offer. I would say she definitely does, but this is one of those opportunities for her to show that, which I think is really great."
Can't wait to watch the movie!
