A teaser trailer has been released by HBO for their upcoming gritty music industry drama, The Idol, starring Lily-Rose Depp and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye. They are joined in the cast by Suzanna Son, Troye Sivan, Moses Sumney, Jane Adams, Dan Levy, Jennie Ruby Jane, Eli Roth, Rachel Sennot, Hari Nef, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Mike Dean, Ramsey, and Hank Azaria. Character details are being kept under wraps.

Co-created by Euphoria creator Sam Levinson, Tesfaye and Reza Fahim, “The Idol is set against the backdrop of the music industry in Los Angeles. It follows a female pop singer who starts a romance with an enigmatic L.A. club owner who is the leader of a secret cult.”

This doesn’t look great to me, but I do like a good cult story, and Dan Levy is in it, so I might be down to at least give it a try. Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think. The Idol is set to hit HBO and HBO Max soon.
