It was only a matter of time before Kanye West ventured onto the silver screen…well, into the world of short films anyway.

Kanye has appeared in a Spike Jonze’s short film, which features a version of West’s song See You In My Nightmares, remixed by Jonze’s brother, one half of N.A.S.A - Squeak E.Clean.

The film, entitled We Were Once A Fairytale reportedly sees a bewildered Mr. West drunkenly boasting in a club, hallucinating, sleeping with a pillow and ripping a demon from his stomach…nice!

This is not the first time the Where The Wild Things Are director has teamed up with Kanye.

Jonze also directed the video for West’s 2008 hit Flashing Lights which was arguably one of the best videos of last year so expectations are high for this 15 minute short film.

According to Jonze’s blog, We Were Once A Fairytale is to be released via iTunes on September 8^th.

We can’t wait!
