Danger Mouse and The Shins James Mercer have teamed up again as Broken Bells, and for their second LP, the duo has put together something much bigger than a standard music video: theyre helping to create a trippy, sci-fi short film to go along with it. The film follows a romance that unfolds between House of Cards Kate Mara and Star Treks Anton Yelchin, who appear to get swept away into some futuristic landscape, spaceship, and disco. In an interview with Complex, the films director, Jacob Gentry, says that the short is based on a story written by Danger Mouse and inspired by sci-fi imagery sent to him by Mercer. James Mercer was sending me images of Barbarella and Logan’s Run, that sort of late ‘60s/early ‘70s science fiction, Gentry said.
