The trailer for The Idol just dropped, and Levinson’s hand is easily recognisable on the project for those familiar with his work. Its dark, moody aesthetic, combined with imaginative camerawork, and tragic, yet strangely beautiful depiction of party culture serves as a well-fitting backdrop for The Weeknd, who has explored the dark aspects of Hollywood life numerous times throughout his musical career. In addition to the high-profile leading duo of Depp and The Weeknd, the cast includes pop artist and actor Troye Sivan, actress and model Hari Nef, and even BlackPink icon Jennie Kim.
