Coldplay

A colorful, magical mystery tour through Mumbai, Delhi, and Worli Village with Coldplay and guest singer Beyoncé, plus a cameo by Bollywood star Sonam Kapoor.

Ben Mor, director: "Hymn For The Weekend is such an exuberant, life-affirming song and I wanted the visuals to compliment and heighten that tone. At the same time, I wanted to spark people’s imaginations and curiosity as they watch just a small fraction of what India has to offer."

Why wait around for a monolith when you've got your paws around a Beats Pill and can rock out to the latest Coldplay single?

That's kinda/sorta the vibe of this motion capture video — made under consultation with the master, Andy Serkis — where a troupe of apes dance their asses off to the beats.

And yes, the Coldplay members got to act like apeman as you can see from this in-depth making-of article from Creative Review.

Playing out unrequited love through passive-aggressive magical acts is one thing — Coldplay singer Chris Martin best hope that Crouching Tiger actress Ziyi Zheng keeps those knife throws straight and true — but learning to levitate as a means to woo your love interest away from her controlling master is truly next level. Call it carnies in love, call it old time silent movie magic: Either way it's some mad pick-up artist skills on display.
