Bollywood Fever: Charli XCX is set to make a splash in the world of cinema, securing her second live-action film role in I Want Your Sex, the latest project from acclaimed director Gregg Araki.
The pop sensation will star alongside Olivia Wilde and Licorice Pizza breakout star Cooper Hoffman in the film, which is set to begin production this October in Los Angeles.
