Charli XCX has an idea for the next Final Destination film.
The Grammy-winning singer recently took to TikTok to express her love for the supernatural horror-thriller franchise, which just released its latest installment, Final Destination Bloodlines, as well as pitch her own version starring “It Girls.”
“I’m rewatching all of the Final Destination movies, in preparation to see Final Destination Bloodlines, which I’m really excited to see,” she said in the video. “The reason I love these movies is that they really just are about hot people getting killed. You know, there’s no moral backbone to the story, it really is just, ‘they’re hot, they’re cursed and they deserve to die.’”
Charli even has an idea for the perfect cast and director. “I was thinking, well, shouldn’t there be a sort of It Girl version of this franchise,” the “Apple” singer continued. “You know like, a Final Destination with It Girls. Kind of like, Rachel Sennott, Alex Consani, Gabbriette, Romy Mars, Me, Quenlin Blackwell, Devon Lee Carlson… maybe there’s like a Scream Queen in there like Jenna (Ortega). Maybe there’s an OG Scream Queen like Sissy Spacek. And then it’s also directed by like a horror auteur.”
There have been six films released in the Final Destination franchise, including Bloodlines, which was released on May 16, since the first film debuted in 2000. The latest pic also ended up being one of the most successful in the series, with a franchise-best domestic box office opening of $51.7 million, ahead of expectations.
“The films wouldn’t have to change their formula, I think the whole point is that they play into the lore. They kind of make fun of their own lore, and I don’t think this one would have to be any different, like I think that’s the point,” Charli added of her idea. “It’s really not trying to do anything other than have hot people die in the most brutal ways and play with some unbelievable dialogue.”
While no official movie is in the works at the moment, Sennott already seemed down for the role, writing in the video’s comments, “Ok I’m in….”
