Tom Petty's estate release quirky new music video for 'Something Could Happen'

Tom Petty's estate has released a brand new music video for 'Something Could Happen', directed by Warren Fu and starring The Walking Dead’s Lauren Cohan.

'Something Could Happen' appears on Wildflowers & All the Rest - Petty’s new double album reissue of his 1994 record Wildflowers.

Fu was inspired by 'Into the Great Wide Open' from Petty’s 1991 album of the same name, and decided to create a modern spin-off of the track's quirky, unconventional video.

“In looking back on Tom’s old music videos, it was obvious that he had a lot of fun with them and was not afraid to get a bit weird,” said Fu in a statement.

“I wanted to create another modern fairytale in the spirit of Tom’s music video for ‘Into the Great Wide Open’. In our story, we have a character that is an incarnation of memories reassembled into a living creature, trying to make its way back home. I think the message I was trying to convey is that all our experiences, the good the bad, the beautiful, and the painful make us who we are, and we should embrace them. Tom never compromised his artistic integrity and always stayed true to who he was, so I feel like our message in this video is in line with his spirit.”

Fu opens the video with pages from a storybook, where we learn that Cohan has vowed to never have her heart broken again and decided to move to a new home far away.

Cohan declutters her house in an attempt to revive her space and sense of identity, throwing away almost everything that’s old, including a giant heart-shaped gem.

After starting to date again, Cohan can’t seem to find anyone that’s a decent match for her until a special someone shows up.
