SPIKE JONZE AND MARY WIGMORE DIRECT
COLDPLAY AND DICK VAN DYKE IN
ALL MY LOVE MUSIC VIDEO (DIRECTORS’ CUT)
SHORTER VERSION OF MUSIC VIDEO TO BE RELEASED
NEXT WEEK, ON VAN DYKE’S 99TH BIRTHDAY
Coldplay have today premiered a special, extended Directors’ Cut video for ALL MY LOVE, the latest single from the band’s smash hit No. 1 album Moon Music.
Co-directed by award-winning directors Spike Jonze and Mary Wigmore, the stirring seven-minute short film celebrates the Hollywood icon Dick Van Dyke, 98 year-old star of classic movies like Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It was filmed at Van Dyke’s Malibu home, and features the legendary performer ruminating about age, family and love.
A shorter version of the music video will be released on Friday, 13 December, to mark the occasion of Dick Van Dyke’s 99th birthday.
Dick Van Dyke’s career has spanned more than 7 decades and earned him 5 Emmys, a Tony, a Grammy, a BAFTA, the SAG Lifetime Achievement Award, induction into in Television Hall of Fame, recognition as a “Disney Legend”, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the adoration of generations of fans.
A limited edition red 7-inch of ALL MY LOVE, is available to order here on recycled vinyl. The new single – the third to be taken from Moon Music – follows August’s iTunes chart-topping single WE PRAY – with Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna & TINI – and June’s double MTV VMAs-nominated feelslikeimfallinginlove, which reached Number 1 on both the UK’s airplay chart and the Official Big Top 40.
In October, Moon Music debuted at No. 1 on album charts around the world, including the US, where it became Coldplay’s fifth US No. 1 album (more than any other UK solo act or group this century) and in the UK, where it outsold the rest of the Top 40 combined.
Since kicking off in March 2022, the band’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour has sold over 12 million tickets across Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, making it the all-time highest attended tour by a group.
The band recently issued an update on the tour’s sustainability initiatives, revealing that, on a show-by-show comparison, the current tour has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50% reduction. More than 9 million trees have already been planted around the world (with a further million to be planted before the end of the year). Full info can be found at sustainability.coldplay.com.
