The Rolling Stones have shared a teaser for their upcoming music video starring Paul Mescal – thereby confirming reports that the Normal People star would appear in a clip for the band.
The video, which accompanies the song “Scarlet”, will be released this coming Thursday (6 August) at 7pm BST/11am PST/2pm EST.
It includes “a very special introduction” by Mescal and Mick Jagger, the band tweeted on Monday along with a short clip of Mescal.
“Scarlet” was originally recorded in 1974 and features Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page.
The song appears on a new, reedited version of the 1973 album Goats Head Soup.
The new version of Goats Head Soup will be released on 4 September.
Mescal’s performance in Normal People, the series adaptation of Sally Rooney’s novel of the same name, has earned him an Emmy nomination in the Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie category.
The 2020 Emmys will take place on 20 September with Jimmy Kimmel as host.
