The trailer for Charli XCX’s upcoming mockumentary has finally dropped and fans have already shared their verdict but Kylie Jenner, who’s set to make her acting debut in it, wasn’t so keen
Charli XCX fans have already shared their verdict on her upcoming film release after watching the full trailer.
A24 unveiled a brand new trailer, after a teaser version sent fans into a frenzy last month. The movie, titled The Moment, is a mockumentary led by the Grammy Award winner, who plays a meta version of herself. The synopsis reads: “A rising pop star navigates the complexities of fame and industry pressure while preparing for her arena tour debut.”
The Moment will have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival next month, and it’ll land in cinemas on January 30 2026.
The star-studded cast is made up of rising stars, like Rachel Sennott, Rosanna Arquette, Hailey Benton Gates, Kate Berlant, Jaime Demetriou, Kylie Jenner, Isaac Powell, and Alexander Skarsgård.

In the full trailer, a fictional version of Charli grapples with fame and the demands of the industry while prepping for an arena tour.
Fans shared their predictions for the movie, with one writing: “Obviously I’m biased but I truly believe this actually looks like a really really good film??? I’m worried people might be put off of it because of it being about Charli (and them thinking its pointless if they’re not a fan) – but the storyline and whole premise does actually look really entertaining.
“I cannot wait; I just hope they do a full UK cinema roll out,” they added.
A second put: “Wow, this looks so good. It’s so meta that it’s making me question the intent of the whole Brat cycle. Brain fried.”
“This looks even better than I expected – I’m so excited!!!” a third chimed in.
In October, she explained that the idea was born from the pressure she faced from her label to film a documentary of the making of her iconic Brat album and tour.
Charli told Vanity Fair at the time: “It’s not a tour documentary or a concert film in any way, but the seed of the idea was conceived from this idea of being pressured to make one. It’s fiction, but it’s the realest depiction of the music industry that I’ve ever seen.”
In it, Kylie Jenner makes a short cameo – and an acting debut – telling the 360 hitmaker: “The second people are getting sick of you, that’s when you need to go even harder.”
In November, Kylie revealed she was “so scared” to actually do it, despite her role being “a very small part”.
“I mean, I had a lot of lines, but I was just so afraid,” she said on her sister Khloe Kardashian’s podcast. “I think I used to do a lot more things out of my comfort zone, and now I’m used to being very sheltered, staying in like a, you know, safe box for me.”
“It’s probably the reason why I don’t share as much, just to not be judged or criticized or — years of that takes a toll on you and I think at a certain point you’re like, ‘Okay, I’m going to do A, B, and C to just protect myself’ … I was very scared to do this and very proud of myself when I did it,” Jenner added.
