Pop icon Charli XCX has a seriously intriguing idea for the next installment in the beloved Final Destination franchise. Forget your typical death traps – she envisions a Final Destination movie brimming with Gen Z style, influencer drama, and a whole lot of 'it girls'.

The 'Brat' singer recently revealed her ambitious pitch, confessing to being a massive fan of the series. Before seeing Final Destination 6 (titled Bloodlines in some regions), she reportedly rewatched all five previous films, immersing herself in the franchise's signature blend of suspense and inventive demise. “The reason I love these movies is that… they’re so clever,” she explained in an interview.

But Charli isn't just a fan – she's a visionary. Her concept goes beyond simply enjoying the films; she wants to *be* in one. She’s already brimming with ideas for casting, director choices, and, crucially, the storyline. Her vision centres on a group of influential figures – the 'it girls' of the moment – who find themselves caught in Death’s crosshairs.

“I’d love to be in a Final Destination movie,” she stated. “Like, a Final Destination with 'it girls'. Imagine! It would be so fun. The casting would be amazing. I’d want a director who really gets the vibe, someone who understands the aesthetic.”

While details remain scarce, the sheer concept is already generating buzz. A Final Destination film featuring the world of social media influencers, with their curated online personas and constant pursuit of likes, offers a ripe landscape for exploring themes of mortality and the fragility of fame. Consider the possibilities – elaborate set pieces within trendy boutiques, near-misses at exclusive parties, and a constant stream of perfectly filtered, yet deadly, scenarios.

The franchise has always excelled at showcasing inventive and often gruesome ways Death claims its victims. Adding the element of influencer culture could introduce a whole new layer of creativity and social commentary. Would Death target those obsessed with their online image? Would the characters use their influence to try and outsmart Death, only to fall victim to its elaborate schemes?

Charli XCX’s pitch is bold, playful, and undeniably intriguing. It taps into the current cultural zeitgeist and offers a fresh perspective on a horror franchise that’s been captivating audiences for years. Whether or not her dream becomes a reality remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: the idea of a Final Destination movie starring 'it girls' is a conversation starter.

Could this be the next big thing for the Final Destination series? Only time will tell, but Charli XCX has certainly planted a seed of possibility in the minds of horror fans everywhere.
