Former Blink-182 bandmates, Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge recently got together for a podcast.
They spoke about their long friendship, UFOs, and the fact that M. Night Shyamalan almost directed a video of theirs.
Hoppus said that while on tour in Japan they introduced themselves to the famed director when they saw him at a table next to them at lunch.
They asked him point blank if he would direct a music video and within half an hour they were all sitting together coming up with ideas.
They joked about the fact that it was gonna cost $20 million dollars and that was way over their budget.
The full conversation can be heard on the latest episode of Hoppus’ After School Radio podcast.
Shyamalan’s current blockbuster is called Old.
