Lovato had asked Robert Rodriguez to direct the music video after meeting him through her role as Maia in From Dusk till Dawn: The Series. Rodriguez stated: “I wanted it to look like a movie, not like a vamped up, over-the-top music video or a movie in a video, but actually something that looked like it was from a spy film. I felt it was this great culmination of movie, ideas and visuals all put together into this song created by Demi Lovato.”
