Charles, 52, went on to share his admiration for Swift also, writing in a post, “I’ve admired Taylor for a long time, but meeting her in person took my fandom to a whole new level.”
“Genuine, kind, approachable, and just an all around stellar human being — Not to mention a kick ass director to boot! #TSTTPD,” he added.
The official video for “Fortnight” dropped on April 19 along with Swift’s albumThe Tortured Poets Society.
In the video, Hawke and Charles play scientists working in a lab around Swift, who is hooked to an upright table, much like the iconic scene from Frankenstein. The pair make their cameos after a romantic scene involving Swift and Post Malone, who also features on the track. Malone, 28, later enters the lab as another scientist, who releases and saves Swift.
