Wigmore also appeared in the movie Shallow Hal, starring Martin’s wife Gwyneth Paltrow.
The video uses a night-vision effect as the band’s members roam through a forest.
The song itself suggests a new sound for Coldplay, whose hits include “Yellow” and “Viva la Vida.”
The song will appear on Coldplay’s new album — its first since 2011’s Mylo Xyloto — which is expected later this year.
“Midnight” is also the band’s first release since “Atlas” from the Hunger Games: Catching Fire soundtrack.
