The Stars (Are Out Tonight), an edgy and cutting tune on David Bowie's upcoming new album, undergoes a fittingly adventurous video treatment by director Floria Sigismondi.
Bowie and actress Tilda Swinton play a happily married couple whose domestic serenity unravels when a menacing celebrity couple, portrayed by Andrej Pejic and Saskia De Brauw, intrude in ways that evoke alien and horror films more than Hollywood glamour. Shot by Jeff Cronenweth, the story reflects the song's examination of celebrity culture.
The Stars appears on Bowie's The New Day, out March 12, his 24th studio album and first since 2003's Reality.
