Selena Gomez stirs nostalgia with her latest release, the music video for ‘In the Dark,’ a key track from ‘Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack.’
Reviving the Past and Embracing New Beginnings
Continuing her musical journey, Selena Gomez launched her latest music video on October 23. Directed by Luke Orlando, ‘In the Dark’ finds Gomez, now 33, serenading through open spaces in her signature all-black outfit, reflecting on themes of love and self-awareness.
