The multi-award-winning singer is reportedly set to feature in a new HBO original series titled ‘The Idol,’ while also serving as one of the series’ co-writers.
Weeknd is also one of the co-creators of ‘The Idol,’ together with ‘Euphoria’ creator Sam Levinson and Reza Fahim.
The plot revolves around a female pop artist who develops feelings for a mysterious Los Angeles club owner who turns out to be the leader of a secret cult.
Along with ‘Euphoria’ creators Sam Levinson and Reza Fahim, Weeknd is acknowledged as one of the co-creators of ‘The Idol.’
The Weeknd (actual name Abel Tesfaye) is no newbie to the television world, as he previously starred in and scripted an episode of ‘American Dad.’
This news comes after The Weeknd’s ‘Blinding Lights’ track was being compared to Ed Sheeran’s latest track ‘Bad Habits’ as fans slammed the ‘Happier’ singer for sampling the Canadian superstar.
