Ariana Grande Drops Teaser for "Brighter Days Ahead" Short Film: Watch
Ariana Grande's deluxe "Eternal Sunshine" album may promise that brighter days are ahead, but a new teaser for the superstar's accompanying short film is, on the contrary, distinctly dark and moody.
In a black-and-white Casablanca-esque clip posted Thursday, a fuzzy string lullaby plays over the sound of seconds ticking by on a stopwatch, which a man holds open on a wooden table.
Inside the lid of the watch is a photo of Grande when she was young, at the time missing her front teeth.
The Old Hollywood-inspired teaser then cuts to a wide shot of a gentleman in a trench coat and top hat strolling through a street lined with brick European buildings.
The clip comes eight days ahead of Grande's "Brighter Days Ahead" short film, which will serve as a companion piece to her "Eternal Sunshine" deluxe album, also dropping March 28.
The "Wicked" star co-directed the visual with longtime collaborator Christian Breslauer, who helmed the music videos for "Eternal Sunshine" singles 'Yes, And?,' 'We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)' and 'The Boy Is Mine.'
Grande has slowly been rolling out details about the new projects since first announcing the long-awaited "Eternal Sunshine" deluxe release date March 10.
Earlier this week, she unveiled the project's tracklist featuring six new songs: 'Intro (End of the World) Extended,' 'Twilight Zone,' 'Warm,' 'Dandelion,' 'Past Life,' and 'Hampstead.'
She also previously dropped a teaser video for the short film in which a robotic voice says, 'Welcome back, Peaches,' seemingly confirming that Grande will reprise her character from the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind-inspired 'We Can't Be Friends' video in Brighter Days Ahead.

MCE Hosts Seminar on Countering Islamophobia at Istanbul Book Fair
Mohamed Mandour The Muslim Council of Elders' pavilion at the Istanbul International Arabic Book Fair hosted a seminar titled 'Countering Islamophobia in Europe: An Analytical Perspective,' presented by Dr. Samir Boudinar, Director of the Hokama Center for Peace Research. During the seminar, Boudinar discussed key themes from the book 'Countering Islamophobia in Europe,' published by Al Hokama Publishing, stressing that Islamophobia is rooted in deliberate fearmongering and the systematic distortion of Islam's image through orchestrated hate campaigns. He underlined the need to confront the phenomenon through legal frameworks, rigorous media monitoring, and intellectual awareness programs. He also called for clear action plans by religious and cultural institutions to highlight Islam's true values of dialogue, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence.
