Charli XCX makes a star turn in teaser trailer for 100 Nights of Hero

Ahead of its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival on September 6, a brand-new trailer for 100 Nights of Hero has been revealed. The film stars Charli xcx in her feature debut alongside an ensemble that includes Maika Monroe, Emma Corrin, Nicholas Galitzine, Felicity Jones, and Richard E. Grant. It is scheduled for a US theatrical release on December 5, while a U.K. release date has yet to be confirmed.

Directed by Julia Jackman (Pigs, Bonus Track), the historical fantasy is adapted from Isabel Greenberg’s graphic novel, which draws inspiration from the Middle Eastern classic "One Thousand and One Nights." The story follows the turmoil that unfolds when a charismatic visitor (Galitzine) arrives at a secluded castle, disrupting the fragile balance between a neglectful husband, his naïve wife Cherry (Monroe), and her loyal maid Hero (Corrin).

The newly released teaser, available to watch below, offers a series of dramatic glimpses of the cast. Among the striking images are Galitzine bloodied and holding a stag’s severed head, while Charli is seen playing a medieval string instrument beneath a willow tree.

After appearing briefly earlier this year in the Prime Video series Overcompensating, where she also served as executive producer of the show and its soundtrack, Charli is now branching further into acting. The BRIT Award winner will appear in Erupcja, a drama she co-wrote, which is set to debut at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 4. That same evening, another of her projects, Victim, will also premiere.

Charli will additionally feature in Sacrifice, a satirical action film from Romain Gavras that tells the story of a celebrity fundraiser interrupted by a radical activist group. While her role has not yet been disclosed, the project joins a growing list of acting ventures for the British artist. Other upcoming titles include thrillers "The Gallerist " and "I Want Your Sex, " along with "The Moment, " a mockumentary about pop stardom produced under her newly launched company, Studio365.

Earlier this summer, Charli headlined The Other Stage at Glastonbury Festival, a performance that Billboard U.K. praised as “a triumph of emotive pop hedonism and discomfiting intimacy.” Just weeks before, she marked the one-year anniversary of her sixth studio album Brat, the record that cemented her rise to worldwide mainstream recognition.

Guns N’ Roses have officially begun their 2026 tour and treated fans to the first ever live performances of Nothin’ and Atlas. You can find videos and the full setlist from the night below.

The concert took place at Parque Fundidora in Monterrey, Mexico on Saturday March 28 and marked the opening night of the band’s 2026 tour schedule. It follows a busy stretch of concerts last year, which concluded in October.

This tour also marks their first since drummer Frank Ferrer exited the group in 2025 after close to two decades. Just a day before the show, keyboard player Melissa Reese also shared that she would not be joining the upcoming dates due to personal matters.

Like many of their concerts, the band began the night with major fan favourites including Welcome To The Jungle and Mr Brownstone, later adding classics such as Paradise City, Don’t Cry, Civil War, November Rain, and their take on Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door as the show continued.

Along with their well known version of the Bob Dylan song, Axl Rose and the rest of the band also performed several other covers during the night. These included Black Sabbath’s Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Wings’ Live And Let Die, Velvet Revolver’s Slither, The Damned’s New Rose, and UK Subs’ Down On The Farm.

The Monterrey performance also included the first live performances of their newer songs Nothin’ and Atlas, which were originally released in December. See the full setlist and clips from the show below.

After the Mexico show, Slash and the rest of the band will continue the tour in April with nine major concerts scheduled across Brazil. In May, they will head to Florida for two performances before moving on to a European run across June and July. That leg begins with two dates in Poland, followed by a performance in Dublin and an already confirmed appearance at the UK’s Download Festival.

Additional stops include concerts in the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Belgium, before they return to North America for another round of shows. Those dates begin in North Carolina on July 23 and conclude in Georgia on September 19. Buy US tickets here, European tickets here, and see the full list of dates below.

In other news, guitarist Slash recently suggested that the band may not perform at the Las Vegas Sphere and also hinted that new Guns N’ Roses material could be on the way, saying that “everybody [in the band] is thinking about it”.
