Justice has just released the video for his latest single, 'Fire', a clip that stars none other than Susan Sarandon. The new French video makes a nod to one of the most iconic characters in cinema and in his career, Thelma from the multi-award-winning film 'Thelma and Louise' from 1991.
The French duo decided to make the clip of 'Fire' adding Sarandon herself, who takes a ride through the desert in a convertible together with Xavier and Gaspard. With a marked eighties inspiration, Sarandon appears wearing blue jeans and a white T-shirt and swaying in slow motion, to the beat of the music of the electronic duo.
The director of the video, Pascal Teixera, described the experience in a press release published by Warner Music: “On a warm summer afternoon, Gaspard and I were in Xavier's kitchen, imagining together that we were washing a car. We thought about how that car should be in detail, its style, design, year, brand. We imagined where the action would take place, how much soap there would be to wash that car, what mood the characters would have and even what the sun would look like that afternoon. We thought about who would be the woman to go for a walk, a character that had to mix freshness, attractiveness and power. Susan Sarandon, who else? A couple of months later we were in the desert, with the car and a lot of soap, and by some strange miracle she was there too, even more incredible than we had thought her in our imagination, and ready to go for a ride ".
Justice's new album 'Woman' was released on November 18, the French duo's third studio album and the first in five years since their previous LP 'Audio, Video, Disco' (2011). Released by the labels Ed Banger Records and Because Music, 'Woman' contains a total of 10 songs, of which four singles have already been promoted: 'Safe and Sound', 'Randy', 'Alakazam!' and finally 'Fire', which accompanied the release of the new album.
