The release of the six-minute film comes a few hours ahead of the band performing on tonight’s (March 11) episode of Saturday Night Live alongside host and Wednesday star Jenna Ortega.

In the short film, Matty Healy meets fans on the street and works out. “You’re not a little girl, you’re a big strong man!” he tells himself while lifting weights.

No details have been revealed about what form the series will take in the future, but an Instagram post from the band calls the new video “Episode 1,” hinting that an entire series is on the way.
