The project, details of which have been closely guarded, marks a significant step for the musician into the world of filmmaking and adds high-profile names to the independent studio’s growing roster of talent.
The film represents a unique convergence of pop culture forces.Jenner, a reality television personality and businesswoman, will take on an acting role alongside Skarsgård, known for his performances in critically acclaimed series like Succession and True Blood. A24, celebrated for its distinctive and often boundary-pushing films like Everything Everywhere All at Once and Hereditary, is backing the project, signaling a potential for a visually and narratively aspiring work.
Charli XCX described a song, ”Actually Romantic,” as being “about realizing that someone else has kind of had a one-sided, adversarial relationship with you that you didn’t know about.” She continued, “It’s presenting itself as them sort of resenting you or having a problem with you but you take that and just accept it as love and you accept it as attention and affection, and how flattering that somebody has made you such a big part of their reality when you didn’t even think about this.” She concluded, “It’s actually pretty romantic if you really think about it.” While the connection to the film’s plot remains unconfirmed, the sentiment offers a potential thematic clue.
Production details, including the film’s plot, release date, and specific character roles, have not yet been disclosed. Though, the involvement of Jenner, Skarsgård, and A24 guarantees significant industry attention and anticipation for the project’s unveiling.
