Taylor Swift left a lasting impression on Jodie Turner-Smith, who shared her firsthand experience working with the singer on the Opalite music video.

On Friday, February 6, the 39-year-old actress took to Instagram to give a special nod to the 36-year-old pop star after the highly anticipated release of the video.

Smith shared a carousel of never-before-seen photos from the set of Opalite, accompanied by a heartfelt note praising Swift.

“Continue to be in awe of you @taylorswift. Your creativity, your intelligence, your wit, your generosity, your grace. I had so much fun doing this, and the entire time I was thinking ‘Taylor directing me again when??!,’” she penned.

The Queen & Slim actress also posted behind-the-scenes snaps from the music video, in which she appears as a ’90s-style aerobics instructor leading a televised workout.

Among the images, Smith included a sweet photo of her five-year-old daughter meeting Swift, as the 14-time Grammy winner bent down to hug the child.

Swift both directed and appeared in the video, which also stars her fellow The Graham Norton Show guests from October 2025, including Smith, Domhnall Gleeson, Cillian Murphy, Greta Lee, Lewis Capaldi, and host Graham Norton.

The Opalite music video premiered via Spotify Premiere and Apple Music on February 6 and is set to be released on YouTube on February 8.
