It looks like being a multiple Grammy winner with dozens of chart topping singles under her name just isn’t enough. There’s a new report that says Taylor Swift hinted that she would love to further explore filmmaking after she made her debut as a writer and director on a short film for her song All Too Well. Here’s what you need to know.
Speaking at the Tribeca Festival in New York, where she was attending the premiere of All Too Well, Swift said that she became interested in stepping behind the camera herself after appearing in so many pop videos over the years.
Taylor Swift Hints That She Wants To Go Into Acting
“I was always curious,” she said. “I started to venture into the edit [for music videos] and making changes and meddling… it started with meddling. I had this imposter syndrome in my head saying, ‘No, you don’t do that. Other people do that who went to school to do that.'”
Swift added that she would “love to” continue working in film, Variety reports. “It would be so fantastic to write and direct something… a feature,” she said. “I don’t see it being bigger, in terms of scale. I loved making a film that was so intimate.”
Speaking about her project, Swift said, “I wanted to make a film about an effervescent, curious young woman who ends up completely out of her depth. You know when you’re walking into the ocean? It’s so fun, the idea of going out so far, your feet don’t touch the ground. But you can get swept away.”
She described being on set as “such a fulfilling experience,” and added, “I’m really secret agent-y about people not finding out what we’re making. Everything was [discussed using] code words. I’m so weird.”
Stranger Things star Sadie Sink and Dylan O’Brien of Teen Wolfappear in the short film, with Sink playing a younger version of Swift and O’Brien’s character rumored to be based on the singer’s ex-boyfriend, Jake Gyllenhaal.
