Green Day have announced a star-studded music video for Corvette Summer.

The band’s Saviors track will get a huge new video next week – on Tuesday, July 23 – and it’s set to feature the lead actor from the movie of the same name: none other than Mark Hamill! The film Corvette Summer was originally released in 1978, the year after Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, and saw Mark playing car lover Kenny Dantley.

And cars will seemingly be the subject matter of Green Day’s accompanying video, too, as they have teased that: “You’re going to have the most turbo-charged, chrome-plated, plush-lined, high-gloss, super-speed customized time of your life.”

They’ve also announced that the band themselves – Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool – will feature in the video, along with comedian Hannibal Buress, and “a whole lot more”.

Watch the teaser below, which features an updated version of Corvette Summer’s vintage movie poster.

If that’s not enough, Green Day have also just announced some new Japan tour dates – catch them at the following:

February 2025

21 Osaka – Osaka-Jo Hall
23 Nagoya – Port Messe Nagoya
25 Yokohama – K Arena Yokohama
26 Yokohama – K Arena Yokohama
