Sheeran and Swift recruited Ava Ames and Jack Lewis from their "Everything Has Changed" video for the new music video.

Ames and Lewis played younger versions of Swift and Sheeran in "Everything Has Changed," released in 2013. In "The Joker and the Queen," the pair are now older and away at college, but exchange texts and reunite at the end of the video.

Sheeran and Swift have also collaborated on the songs "End Game" and "Run."

"Me and Taylor first met and wrote + recorded our first song together in 2012, ten years ago now, I'm so so honoured to have her on this song," Sheeran wrote on Instagram. "Not only is she the best singer/songwriter in the world but she's also a very close friend, I'm very lucky to have her in my life."

"For the music video we got the kids from our song Everything Has Changed, all grown up and off to college now!" he said. "Hope you love the song, and the video, and have a great week."
