Billie Eilish has expressed interest in directing a movie.
While appearing on Monday's episode of The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast with her brother Finneas, the Happier Than Ever singer was asked what career accomplishments were still on her to-do list.
She responded, "I would love to direct a movie someday."
Billie and Finneas won an Oscar for writing the title song for the 2021 James Bond film No Time To Die and won a Golden Globe on Sunday for What Was I Made For? in the 2023 film Barbie.
"We are fans and love movies and love music in movies. Music in movies does not get enough recognition," she said in the interview. "People don't talk about how music in a movie or a show literally makes or breaks whatever you're watching."
The singer named Skyfall from the 2012 James Bond film of the same name, as well as When She Loved Me from Toy Story 2 and Here I Am from Spirit, as her favourite film soundtrack hits.
"A big songwriting challenge that we used to do was, 'Let's pretend to write a song for a Bond movie.' We used to do that all the time," Billie continued. "That was ridiculous - like, 'Why would that ever happen?' But it was just a fun challenge to do. And then we made a song for a Bond movie."
On how the soundtrack-production process differed from the album-production process, she added, "Finneas and I can write from a prompt - that's something we really thrive at. I love not having to worry about myself and worry about my own life and experiences and feelings. It's relieving. The actual process of writing is the same, it's just kind of approaching it differently."
