Today, fast rising global rock stars Måneskin unveil the highly anticipated new visual for their latest single ‘Supermodel’. The video release follows recent news of the band securing their second platinum record in the UK with their previous hit single ‘Beggin’’.

Filmed in London and directed by Bedroom projects (The 1975) and Ben Chappell (Arctic Monkeys, Nine Inch Nails), the cinematic visual sees the Gucci-styled band cast in their own script for blockbuster single ‘Supermodel’. Combining classic elements of Tarantino and Hitchcock, the band perfectly captures the song’s fierce mood and playful lyrics as a series of catastrophic events unfold.

Måneskin writes, “We wanted to pay tribute to our favourite ‘90s movies in the Supermodel music video. We tried to capture a cinematic vibe about an enigmatic character in the track and we wanted the visual to reflect that. After we came up with the idea, we worked closely with the directors and Ben to recreate frame shots and sequences from our favourite 90s films. We had so much fun filming it in London, playing funny scenes that reminded us of a detective B-movie.”Bedroom comments, “The Måneskin video was a project that was inspired by the references of a mixture of 90s films like Run Lola Run, Reservoir Dogs, as well as, Hitchcock and a bit of 1950s Hollywood. The macguffin of the mysterious purse was something out of Marnie or Pulp fiction. Shot on Super 16.”

“This video came about after a week of sitting around the pool in LA with the band thumbing through 90s Vogue magazines and talking about our favorite 90s movies. We tried to sneak in as many small references as we could throughout the video.” Ben Chappell adds.

Produced with pop prodigy Max Martin and his team, the band launched their current single ‘Supermodel’ earlier this month with a surprise performance at the Eurovision Song Contest. The California-soaked rock anthem is loosely based on characters they met during their time in LA. “You want to hang out with this supermodel, but you might get in trouble. It’s like cigarettes: you love them but you know they’re gonna fucking kill you.” the band described in their recent NME Big Read cover interview.

The band will kick off their world tour “LOUD KIDS TOUR” on October 31 with a sold out show at their opening night in Seattle, followed by a run of sold out gigs across North America – including three in Canada, two in New York, Washington, San Francisco and Atlanta before embarking on their recently expanded European leg in 2023 – playing iconic venues including London’s O2 Arena, Accor Arena in Paris and Berlin’s Mercedes Benz Arena.
