M83 has teamed up with actress turned director Bryce Dallas Howard for the music video for “Claudia Lewis,” a track from their 2011 album Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming. Part of MTV’s “Supervideos” series, which, according to the former music channel’s blog, pairs a “cool director” with “cool actors and even cooler music,” the video stars The Blind Side’s Lily Collins as a blue-wigged teen alien who infiltrates a local high school and The Bling Ring’s Israel Broussard as her terrestrial paramour. Dallas Howard was reportedly inspired by The Man Who Fell to Earth, the 1976 Nicolas Roeg film starring David Bowie, and even makes a nod to Dad’s 1984 hit Splash.
