1. The Idol
To say we’re excited for Abel Tesfaye aka The Weeknd’s acting debut in the upcoming series The Idol may be an understatement. The singer plays Tedros, a self-help guru and the leader of a modern-day cult. We get to follow his complex relationship with Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp), an aspiring pop idol. Jocelyn had to cancel her tour after suffering from a nervous breakdown but now wants to reclaim her title as the sexiest pop star in America. The show was written by Abel Tesfaye and Sam Levinson, the mastermind behind HBO’s Euphoria.
‘The Idol’ is coming weekly to (HBO) Max on June 4.
