Sabrina Carpenter does have good judgment and taste when it comes to picking music video leads.

The “Please Please Please” singer shared a teaser trailer of her upcoming Aug. 23 music video for “Taste,” in which she’ll star alongside Wednesday ’s Jenna Ortega .

In the clip Sabrina posted on Instagram Aug. 21 , the “Nonsense” singer, 25, picks a knife up from a selection of weapons, artfully laid out on a plush pink bed. The scene cuts to Sabrina, dressed in a blue top, black capris and heels, walking into a mansion with the knife, before running up a grand staircase as she raises it in the air á la Child’s Play .

Later, Sabrina wears an all white ensemble as she walks into a bathroom and peels back a clear curtain to reveal Jenna showering with a mystery man. The 21-year-old has a shocked, then slightly terrified, expression before the scene cuts to black and Sabrina is shown again admiring herself in the reflection of a clean knife blade.

The background plays there are the opening notes of the performance, as Sabrina is singing, “Oh I leave quite an impression.”

Sabrina’s selected “Taste” costar could be a subtle reference to her previous work on Disney as Jenna and her character–who were in Girl Meets World and Stuck in the Middle and Stuck in the Middle, respectively — rose to fame via the network’s children’s channel and have strayed from the trend for years afterward.

While Jenna has praised her heritage, she’s now the biggest screaming queen. And as for Sabrina?

“I’m 900 inappropriate jokes away from being a Disney actor,” she said to the magazine Varietyin the course of an interview with Variety in aninterview released earlier this month. “I’m always extremely flattered to be grouped in with the other women and girls who I’ve idolized and looked up to who came from that, but I feel very distant from it.”

Jenna’s casting comes just after Sabrina made public her romance to actor Barry Keoghan in a video for “Please Please Please” June 6.

“I don’t want to sound biased, but I think he’s one of the best actors of this generation,” Sabrina spoke glowingly about her Saltburn actress to Variety. “So getting to see him on the screen with my song as the soundtrack made the video better and all the more special.”

While the couple who starred on “Please Please Please” together seemed at the time to be romantic gestures, Sabrina inviting Jenna into the mix to kick off her short N Sweet period shows she is developing the look of a movie star, which she has previously revealed as the theme for her forthcoming sixth LP.

According to her interview with the magazine Variety, “I love the faces of the ’60s and ’90s–old Hollywood, flirty and fun.”
