As Charli XCX closes out what has arguably been her most successful 12 months to date, it’s clear that 2024 hasn’t just been the year of Brat, but also the year of films for the British musician, with her Letterboxd account going viral amongst her fanbase.
Appearing online on Friday (Dec. 27), a Letterboxd account purporting to be Charli XCX’s began making the rounds before tacit confirmation of its existence was given when its bio was updated to read “my account got leaked i guess”.
Fans have since been quick to comb through the singer’s cinematic tastes, with her favorite films including titles such as Charlie’s Angels, The Addiction, Bride of Frankenstein, and Céline and Julie Go Boating. Her stats also confirm that despite her immensely busy schedule in 2024, the year has seen her watch a total of 210 films to date.
Most notably, however, has been Charli XCX’s reviews of the films she has watched, which range from the simple and observational (“there were a lot of songs in this!” she says of the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown) to the almost mundane and unrelated (“watched this whilst george built lego”, she wrote of fiancé George Daniel’s activities during The Tragedy of Macbeth).
Other key reviews include her take on the Brad Pitt-starring Moneyball, for which she succinctly wrote “This isn’t for British people”, and Luca Guadagino’s Challengers, which amount to, “was so amped after watching this i ended up going out til 5am with Harrison and then was super hungover for the met. worth it though.”
Her viewing of 2013’s Jonathan Glazer-directed Under the Skin simply resulted in a reminder to “make next album w mica levi”, while Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-winning Oppenheimer saw her opinion amount to, “Liked this coz they were all just gossiping about bombs”.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Charli XCX had joined the cast of The Gallerist alongside Natalie Portman and Jenna Ortega.
The culture-defining musician currently has a number of movie roles lined up following a successful run with her latest album, June’s Brat (which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, making it her highest charting album to date) and its October companion release, Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat. Her name is credited among the cast of the films 100 Nights of Hero, Erupcja, Faces of Death, I Want Your Sex, Mother Mary and Sacrifice, all currently in post-production. She’s also guest starring on the Amazon comedy series Overcompensating.
