Coldplay Releasing ‘Kaleidoscopic Patchwork Quilt’ Short Movie ‘A Film For the Future’ Created By 150 Artist From 45 Countries


Coldplay announce Jan. 22 release of 44-minute 'kaleidoscopic patchwork quilt' short movie 'A Film For the Future,' a companion to 'Moon Music' LP.

The band announced the new project, A Film For the Future, on Tuesday morning (Jan. 14), calling the 44-minute movie a visual companion to their recent album Moon Music, which became their first Billboard 200 No. Executive producer Ben Mor — who directed the 2016 video for the Coldplay/Beyoncé collab “Hymn For the Weekend” — called the resulting Koyaanisqatsi-like visual mindtrip a “kaleidoscopic patchwork quilt — a 44-minute multimedia tapestry.” The release noted that Coldplay have been working a long con on fans since 2019, when they first teased the movie on a license plate in the artwork for their Everyday Life album that read “FFTF2024.” In addition, a segment of the project appeared in the July 2024 multi-media lyric video for their Moon Music single “ feelslikeimfallinginlove.”
