Charli XCX Sidesteps 'Actually Romantic' Speculation, Rejects Tour Docs for A24 Mockumentary

The comments coincide with Disney+ announcing a new Eras Tour concert film alongside a six‑part docuseries.

Overview

  • In a new Vanity Fair cover story, Charli XCX says she turned down a tour documentary because the format feels oversaturated and too formulaic.
  • She is instead starring in The Moment, an A24 mockumentary due in 2026 about a pop star preparing for her first solo arena tour, directed by Aidan Zamiri.
  • Asked whether Taylor Swift’s song 'Actually Romantic' is about her, Charli declined to comment, while Swift has described the track as addressing a one‑sided adversarial fixation without naming anyone.
  • Disney+ has set a new Eras Tour concert film for December release alongside a six‑episode behind‑the‑scenes docuseries, intensifying focus on tour‑doc culture.
  • Charli’s Oct. 11 SNL cameo in a 'Max’s Kansas City' T‑shirt prompted fan interpretations tied to Swift and Kansas City, though others noted it mirrored musical guest Role Model’s promo wardrobe.
