PinkPantheress will make her film debut in the Daniels’ new film

Who would have thought that that girl who appeared in 2021 uploading 1-minute songs to the internet, hiding her identity and with almost no one knowing what she was like or what her name was, would end up making her debut as an actress in a Daniels film.

Yes, PinkPantheress is moving to the movies. Victoria Walker has joined the cast of the new secret film by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, the duo behind the great ‘Everything at once everywhere’, one of the best films of 2022. For now, Universal has said absolutely nothing about the story.

Of course, the cast promises: Matt Damon, Sandra Oh, Charles Melton, Sean Kaufman, Silvia Dionicio, Jackson Kelly, Kerrice Brooks, Thalia Dudek and Michael Gandolfini will share the screen with the British pop star, who is no longer anonymous.

As this film debut arrives, PinkPantheress still has a hit on her hands. His collaboration with Zara Larsson, ‘Stateside’, remains installed in Spotify’s global top 60, further proof that the song is having a much longer commercial life than usual.
