According to Mumford, lead singer of British rock band Mumford & Sons, the video was filmed on July 3 in a high school gym in New York.
Spielberg, Mumford added, shot the video “in one shot, on his phone. “
Spielberg’s wife, actress Kate Capshaw, assisted as “the almighty dolly grip.” She was also credited as a producer and art director.
In one photo shared by Mumford, Capshaw is seen dragging her husband in a rolling chair.
Mumford’s wife, actress Carey Mulligan, was credited as the “costumer.”
“Cannibal” is the first single from Mumford’s solo album, out September 16.
Earlier this month, Mumford said he wrote the song “in January 2021, facing demons I danced with for a long time in isolation.”
He called the forthcoming record “dear to my heart.”
