Martin Scorsese adds Charli xcx cameo to his Jennifer Lawrence-Leonardo DiCaprio movie

Months after Charli xcx tapped the director to be the embodiment of “film” in the album art for Music, Fashion, Film, Martin Scorsese has returned the favor. Variety reports that Charli will have some sort of cameo in Scorsese’s upcoming What Happens At Night, which will star Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio. The film will follow them as an American couple that travels to Europe to adopt a child, “but as they struggle to claim their child, the less they seem to know about themselves,” according to a synopsis. Not much is known about Charli’s part, but we’ll go out on a limb and guess that she’ll play someone European. Mads Mikkelsen, Patricia Clarkson, and Jared Harris are also slated to appear in the film. 

This is yet another film role that Charli has embraced in her post-Brat era. Earlier this year, she starred in The Moment, a mockumentary about her Brat Tour. She also landed roles in Faces Of Death, I Want Your Sex, Erupcja, 100 Nights Of Hero, and an upcoming Takashi Miike picture. What happens at night, meanwhile, will be Scorsese’s first film since the Best Picture-nominated Killers Of The Flower Moon, and, unfortunately, his first since throwing his name behind some AI product. It’s not publicly known when What Happens At Night will be released.
