Music Video  by [Raisa Bruner](https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/)  ## Raisa Bruner Oct 27, 2017 5:48 AM UTC  by [Raisa Bruner](https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/)  ## Raisa Bruner Oct 27, 2017 5:48 AM UTC New, _Reputation_\-era Taylor Swift isn’t holding back on the visuals. First there was Graveyard _Thriller_\-style Swift in the [reference-packed video](http://time.com/4918411/taylor-swift-look-what-you-made-me-do-music-video-references/) for “[Look What You Made Me Do.”](http://time.com/4913298/taylor-swift-look-you-made-me-do-reactions/) (And Glam Snake Queen Swift, and Diamond Bath Swift, and Cat Burglar Swift, among many others.) And now, in the trailer for her new music video for second single “…Ready For It,” released Thursday night, we are getting introduced to Cyborg Swift. First teased in a series of Instagram posts on Monday, the trailer features Swift dressed up [_Ghost In the Shell_\-style](http://time.com/4718852/ghost-in-the-shell-review/), looking a lot like Scarlett Johansson’s cyborg character in what appears to be a completely nude bodysuit as she explores and battles for survival in a dark, sinister urban underworld. Above, lightning flashes and crisscrosses a moody sky, appropriately echoing the aggressive bass line of the track. Below, Swift ramps up for a fight. It appears she has the power to harness electrical energy and to shatter glass on command, too. The message: this is not a Swift you want to mess with. Baby, let the games begin, indeed. Taylor Swift’s sixth album _Reputation_ is out Nov. 10\.
