The futuristic music video for the band’s latest single “In the Dark” shows the Oscar-winning actor lip-syncing to the beats of the song while being strapped into a futuristic machine, which has him reliving traumatic memories from his past.

The band’s frontman Oli Sykes described this video as a representation of the grieving process while chatting about it with NME. He also explained how their collaboration with Forest Whitaker came about and admitted they’ve been trying to work together for ages but the timing was never right – until now.

“We met Forest a couple of years back. His daughter is a fan of the band and he came to a show with her. Any time that we’re in the same town, he usually comes down to a show. He was at All Points East and he’s just a really good dude,” explained Sykes.
