Co-starring model-turned-actor Scott Eastwood — who is, indeed, “so tall and handsome as hell” — the throwback video (set on Aug. 2, 1950 per an on-set clapperboard) shows the couple getting hot and heavy on the Serengeti. Swift and Eastwood canoodle among lions and zebras, Taylor clad in what seems to be Elizabeth Taylor-inspired garb. The dramatic video was directed by Joseph Kahn, who also was behind the camera for “Bad Blood” and “Blank Space.”
