Dior and A24 introduced their new creative partnership with a short film built around a single, repeating joke: five different actors, all playing the same person. Sabrina Carpenter, Camille Cottin, Josh O'Connor, Drew Starkey, and Sophie Wilde each appear as Dior creative director Jonathan Anderson, with Anderson himself closing out the cast list playing Jonathan Anderson. The film was directed by Aidan Zamiri and shared by A24 on social media.
The credits format, "Sabrina Carpenter as Jonathan Anderson," repeated across five actors before landing on Anderson playing himself, frames the whole project as a piece of collaborative theater rather than a traditional brand campaign. A quote attributed to Anderson accompanying the release describes the project as the start of a partnership built around artists and storytelling, with the idea that placing two creative industries side by side reveals things neither could find working alone.
