It was Monday when Taylor Swift first released her ‘manifest’ detailing all the special events that would occur during the lead-up plus post-release of her new album Midnights.
In this manifest, fans immediately noticed that the singer would release a teaser trailer during the third quarter of Thursday Night Football. Well, the teaser trailer dropped, and the wait was worth it.

Before sharing the trailer, Taylor expressed her excitement about the secret projects she has been working on. But it was then that the singer then shared that those ‘secret projects’ were the Midnights music videos. Yes, you read that right — music videos.
Lasting only 40 seconds, the teaser trailer showed Taylor in simple and glamorous costumes, various locations, scenarios, and much more. The trailer also teased a ton of callbacks to past eras; there’s no doubt that eagle-eyed Swifties instantly spotted them.
However, it was the list of actors and other artists at the end of the trailer that was eye-catching. The Midnights music videos will feature Taylor and appearances from Jack Antonoff, Laith Ashley, Laura Dern, Alana Haim, Danielle Haim, Este Haim, Pat McGrath, and Dita Von Teese, with Mike Birbiglia, John Early, and Mary Elizabeth Ellis, all featured in “Anti-Hero,” the first visual of many to be released from the album.
It’s unknown who will appear in the other videos. Still, just from the teaser trailer, knowing that Midnights is a visual album, every single one of these music videos will be sensational.
Taylor Swift’s new album, Midnights, is out now.
