Finneas Releases ‘2001’ Video Featuring Kate Hudson

Finneas released the music video for his song "2001," featuring Kate Hudson as the disinterested director and himself as a lovestruck actor. Directed by Claudia Sulewski, the video pays homage to the classic film 2001: A Space Odyssey, incorporating iconic visual elements like the fisheye lens and an upside-down sequence along with subtle behind-the-scenes easter eggs. The narrative centers on Finneas’s character trying to win Hudson’s attention on set, reflecting the song's themes of unrequited love. Sulewski aimed to blend playful and cheeky moments between the two to complement the lyrics. "2001" is part of Finneas's second studio album, For Cryin’ Out Loud, which also includes other notable tracks and follows his recent Grammy nominations and successful tour. The music video continues to showcase Finneas's creative range, blending cinematic references with personal storytelling.
