The Weeknd is releasing a movie with the identical title as his forthcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. Introduced on Monday (Nov. 4), the “Die For You” singer is predicted to star within the psychological thriller alongside Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan.
Lionsgate picked the challenge, which will probably be directed by Trey Edward Shults, up for a world theatrical launch. Daniel Lopatin and The Weeknd will work collectively on the movie’s accompanying music. On the time of reporting, the film doesn’t have a set launch date.
“Abel is a visionary whose artwork can’t be confined by any single medium,” Lionsgate Movement Image Group Chairman Adam Fogelson defined to Selection. “With Hurry Up Tomorrow, in partnership with Trey, his musical universe expands onto the large display screen with a psychological thriller that may usher in a brand new cinematic expertise for followers. We’re thrilled to be bringing it to audiences worldwide.”
Hurry Up Tomorrow will draw a conclusion to the album trilogy The Weeknd began with After Hours and continued with Daybreak FM. The Canadian singer gave followers a style of the upcoming physique of labor with singles like “Dancing In The Flames,” the Playboi Carti-assisted “Timeless,” and “São Paulo” that includes Anitta. The last-mentioned monitor arrived on Halloween (Oct. 31) alongside a grotesque music video.
Hip Hop and R&B followers have been getting loads of movie information from their favourite artists currently. In October, Megan Thee Stallion took viewers by her private and profession challenges — together with dropping her mom and being shot by Tory Lanez — in In Her Phrases on Amazon Prime. She’s reportedly already engaged on her subsequent challenge, an anime sequence.
In the meantime, Ye’s In Whose Title? was introduced on the prime of November. The documentary, which apparently has a finances of $1 billion, is slated to be launched in 2025.
