Finn Wolfhard has stepped behind the camera to direct a brand-new music video honouring the legacy of George Harrison.
The Stranger Things star teamed up with a group of Canadian artists on the new stop-motion clip for his 1973 hit Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth).
It took the work of 20 stop-motion artists who built it all by hand.
The ambitious production was spearheaded by Toronto’s Nobody Told Me Studios in collaboration with Tye Down Pictures.
The 22-year-old actor and musician – who portrays Mike Wheeler on hit Netflix series Stranger Things – revealed how meaningful the project was to him, describing the collaboration as a career highlight.
He said: “To work with the Harrison family and bring this video to life with a team of incredible young Canadian artists has been a great honour.”
Wolfhard went on to reflect on the personal impact Harrison’s music has had on him.
He explained: “It’s hard to put into words how grateful I am for this opportunity. George Harrison has and will continue to be a huge inspiration to me, and his work will live on forever.”
The late Beatle’s son, Dhani Harrison, executive-produced with David Zonshine, and said his father – who died in 2001, aged 58, from cancer – would have “loved” the creation.
Composer Dhani, 47, said: “Finn is one of the sweetest and most talented people I know of his generation, and he is the perfect person to direct a video for my dad.
“My dad would have loved this, and I hope his wonderful, creative, heartfelt ideas help this song reach another generation. Great job, Finn – we love you.”
The video takes the viewer on a journey through Harrison’s private state, Friar Park, in Henley-On-Thames, with many nods to the musician’s career throughout.
This year saw Wolfhard kick off his music career with his debut album Happy Birthday.
In an interview with Dork, the multi-hyphenate explained that he made the collection after a period of “wallowing”.
He said: “I was going through something. I had no idea why I was feeling a certain way, so I just wrote about it. I put the wallowing to good use.”
