The Red Hot Chili Peppers have tapped Olivia Wilde to direct the music video for their latest single "Dark Necessities."

Olivia has slowly built up a directing resume; she first ventured into the field with the dreamy music video for Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros' "No Love Like Yours" -- even more impressive considering the entire clip was shot on an iPhone 6S.
