Ed Sheeran donned a dress to attend the wedding of his pal, Ron Weasley depicting Rupert Grint.
Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint have teamed up once again for a visually stunning and comedic music video titled "A Little More". This collaboration serves as a 14-year follow-up to their iconic 2011 video "Lego House".
In the new video, directed by Emil Nava, Grint reprises his role as an obsessive fan, now freshly released from prison after serving 14 years for stalking Sheeran. The plot follows Grint's character as he embarks on a journey of self-healing, attending therapy sessions, joining a "Stalkers Anonymous" support group, and finding employment as a mansion cleaner.
Grint's character falls for a woman played by Nathalie Emmanuel from Game of Thrones, leading to a whimsical wedding proposal. However, the proposal takes a bizarre turn in the video, adding to the overall absurdity of the narrative.
Sheeran's role in the video is versatile and playful, with him appearing in various characters. He dons more than 250 thrifted costume changes, emphasizing sustainability, and injects humor and chaos into the video. One of the standout moments is Sheeran's portrayal as a bride at Grint’s wedding, a surreal and comedic element that balances the visual humor and theatrical storytelling.
The video, a blend of dark comedy, absurdity, and nostalgia, is described as a colorful, whimsical narrative that balances emotional nuance in the lyrics with visual humor. It is a spiritual sequel to their 2011 hit "Lego House" and a creative celebration of the strong friendship and chemistry between Sheeran and Grint.
This collaboration is part of the promotional run-up to Sheeran's next studio album, "Play", which is scheduled to release worldwide on September 12, 2025. Sheeran expressed his excitement over working with Grint again after a 14-year gap on Instagram. The video shoot was the longest of Sheeran's career and involved the most costume changes to date.
In the closing scene, Sheeran and Grint slow-dance beneath a glittering disco ball, with Sheeran wearing a white bridal gown. The video ends with Sheeran's face under Grint's bride's veil, leaving viewers with a memorable and surreal image.
This collaboration is a testament to the enduring friendship and creative partnership between Sheeran and Grint and promises a mix of comedy and emotional complexity ahead of the release of Sheeran's album "Play".
In the midst of the anticipation for Ed Sheeran's upcoming studio album "Play," the music video for his new song "A Little More" features a return of his creative partnership with Rupert Grint. This collaboration, filled with entertainment and pop-culture references, takes viewers on a journey from India to the world of movies-and-tv, incorporating elements of dark comedy, absurdity, and a touch of India's vibrant culture.
