‘Back to Black’ Star Jack O’Connell to Make Directorial Debut With Paul Weller Music Video (EXCLUSIVE)


'Back to Black' star Jack O'Connell is making his directorial debut with a music video for Paul Weller.

Jack O’Connell may be about to be seen on screen in the Amy Winehouse biopic “ Back to Black,” but the actor has also stepped behind the camera to shoot a video for another U.K. music icon, Paul Weller. The Brit — who stars as Winehouse’s ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil in Sam Taylor-Johnson’s feature alongside Marisa Abela as the late, legendary singer — has made his directorial debut with the music video for “Nothing,” a track set to be part of Weller’s new album “66,” releasing in May. Following its world premiere in London’s Leicester Square on Monday night, “Back to Black” releases in the U.K. with StudioCanal on April 12 and in the U.S. on May 17 with Focus Features.
