Kevin Spacey Keeps Missing The Party In Tom Odell’s New ‘Here I Am’ Music Video

We never need an excuse to Google Kevin Spacey, but this morning we were thrilled to find him featuring in Tom Odell’s brand new music video.

Hollywood actors like Spacey are no strangers to music videos, everyone remembers Christopher Walken’s epic ’Weapon Of Choice’ starring role for Fatboy Slim, right? And now the one and only Kevin Spacey is joining the ranks with the help of Tom Odell.

In the visuals for ‘Here I Am’ from Tom’s new album Wrong Crowd, we essentially see the House Of Cards actor walking upstairs, over and over again, trapped in some sort of stairwell purgatory. Sounds boring, right? Well, wait until you see how it all ends…

We could get all psychoanalytical on this music video, something about striving to achieve your dreams but never quite making it, but we’ll save that for the experts. Instead, what we will say is that Kevin keeps missing the damned party!

In the video he repeatedly reaches the door of a flat party, disco lights and all, just that second too late. Poor Kev…

As well as watching the music video over and over again, we want to raise a few questions about how this beautiful pairing came about.

With our detective hats on we’ve managed to decipher that Kevin went to one of Tom’s gigs a couple months back (see his amazing Instagram post below). Could this have been where the music video idea came about?

We're not sure, but one thing we do know is that Tom Odell's music and Kevin Spacey's acting are a match made in heaven.
