19 Big Movies in 2019Director Patrick Brice revealed the 37- year-old pop star’s involvement in the movie — her first turn on the big screen since 2002’s Crossroads — during a Los Angeles Times panel at Sundance Film Festival on Monday, January 28.
“The ghost of Britney Spears is in our movie,” Brice said.
The news came as a shock to star Jessica Williams. “Wait, what is this?” the 29-year-old exclaimed. “What?”

Brice then explained how the “Toxic” singer will be heard, if not seen, in the movie: “One of our characters — Calum Worthy’s character, Aidan — is obsessed with Britney Spears, and there’s a runner of him as he’s going crazy thinking that Britney is speaking to him from the walls.”

Even after hearing the details, Williams was still astonished. “I gotta hear the outtakes,” she said. “I’m happy to have that energy in the film.”
Karan Soni, another star of the film, said the filmmakers threw around the names of many different artists since they weren’t sure who they could get.
“Through a series of connections we were able to get 10 minutes of [Britney’s] time to record this, which was so awesome,” Brice said.
