Wondering what lauded video director Jonathan Glazer has been up to directing the haunting drama, “Birth” in 2004 other then still not dazzling us with a new feature film?
Well, actually he does have his next feature-length project, “Under The Skin” happening, but in the meantime he directed the new music video for The Dead Weather, a musical side project led by Jack White and Allison Mosshart (The Kills). The video will premiere on Cinemax on July 11 front of the Angelina Jolie flick, “Wanted” and, judging from the eerie trailers, would be a suitable lead-in to action-flick. [Idolator]
Meanwhile, Jack White will also be hitting this year’s Comic Con. A 22 year old White features in a sci-fi spoof film titled “Mutant Swinger From Mars” that will be hitting San Diego. The film, which began filming in 1997, has the synopsis: “Aliens from Mars come to Earth and force a mad scientist to ‘create’ a ‘chick magnet’ to lure women so, they may take them to Mars because.. Mars needs women, of course.” Meanwhile, White’s documentary “Under Great White Northern Lights,” filmed on The White Stripes’ 2007 Canadian tour, will be premiering at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival.
