Directed by photographer Aidan Zamiri, in his feature debut, and based on Charli’s “original idea,” The Moment follows a burgeoning pop star embarking on her first arena tour. However, amid the preparation, she is forced to navigate industry pressure and the complexities that come with her newfound fame.

Zamiri and Bertie Sanders are credited as writers, while music producer A.G. Cook – who will also star in the project – has signed on to compose the music.

Lastly, Charli will be doing double duty as the film’s star and producer under her production company Studio365.

On 6 October, the ‘Apple’ singer shared photos from the set of The Moment, which included a shot of her in a body suit, content from the script, and song lyrics.

In addition to headlining her own film, Charli is set to appear in the upcoming IFC film, 100 Nights of Hero. To watch the latest trailer, click here.
