In “Hurry Up, Tomorrow,” Abel Tesfaye’s (allegedly) final album as The Weeknd, we find a singer tormented by the specter of death. This theme carries over to the trailer for his new film, also titled “Hurry Up Tomorrow,” where Tesfaye portrays – you guessed it – a musician plagued by death. The trailer for this Trey Edward Shults-directed movie is not heavy on narrative details but rich in atmosphere, brimming with flashing lights and a bassy Daniel Lopatin score. A voice at the beginning of the trailer says, “Death is nothing at all. It does not destroy. Everything remains just as it was. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are.” In this movie, Tesfaye is joined by Jenna Ortega as his possible love interest and Barry Keoghan as a puzzling outsider.

As a movie enthusiast, I must clarify that “Hurry Up” is not to be mistaken with The Weeknd’s other recent cinematic venture, the HBO series titled “The Idol.” While “The Idol” was announced in mid-2021, following the triumph of his album “After Hours” and the hit single “Blinding Lights,” news about “Hurry Up” didn’t surface until early 2023, after “The Idol” had completed its reshoots. Interestingly, while The Weeknd partnered with “Euphoria” showrunner Sam Levinson on “The Idol,” Levinson is reportedly not involved in the production of “Hurry Up.” In fact, according to The Hollywood Reporter, the production of “Hurry Up” has caused a rift between Levinson and his longtime collaborator Kevin Turen, as Turen is producing “Hurry Up” without Levinson. Furthermore, last July, The Hollywood Reporter reported that “Hurry Up” had been in post-production for over a year with minimal interest from investors. Now, it’s set to hit theaters on May 16th.
