Best hookup ever: Spike Jonze and Arcade Fire make sweet movie together

A spokesperson for director Spike Jonze (Adaptation, Being John Malkovich) has announced that Jonze will be collaborating with Montreal’s Arcade Fire on a short film. It’s not the first time the group has been involved in one of Jonze’s projects; devoted fans may remember hearing their song “Wake Up” in the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are (at left). Currently filming in Austin, Texas, the movie—which is almost 100 per cent guaranteed to be freaking awesome—is rumoured to be about friends who grow apart. For our sake, we hope Jonze and Arcade Fire remain friends forever.
