Powerhouse couple Jay Z and Beyoncé wrapped their On the Run world tour over the weekend with a pair of shows in Paris, but the duo isn't slowing down just yet.

As previously reported, the Paris shows were filmed for an HBO concert and now the couple has unveiled the first of three short films to serve as teasers for the television event.

Directed by Dikayl Rimmasch, Bang Bang sees Jay and Bey reprising their outlaw roles, outsmarting a diner patron and making their getaway in a fancy car.

Speaking about the Carters' intentions for the film, Rimmasch said, "We're not trying to do this literally, it's not that we're Bonnie and Clyde. We're on the run from everything. On the run from becoming a cliché. On the run from doing the same thing again."
