The video, directed by Floria Sigismondi, will premiere on 11/11/11 when Katy makes an appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show.
Perry snagged Mexican movie star Diego Luna to play the male lead in the vid.
"I'm so pleased to select 'The One That Got Away' as my sixth single because this song shows a very different side of me that I haven't shown with my past singles on this record. I think that everyone can relate to this song," Perry says about the ballad from her massive “Teenage Dream” album. "I wrote this song about when you promise someone forever, but you end up not being able to follow through. It's a bittersweet story — hopefully, the listener learns from hearing it and never has to say they had 'The One' get away."
