The Weeknd's new show has us cancelling all of our plans.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/the-weeknd-abel-fun-facts-name-merch-lyrics-after-hours-plastic-surgery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Weeknd</a> has officially set out to take over TV. The famous singer, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye is now starring in, co-writing, and executive producing one of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/hbo-max-renews-euphoria-season-3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HBO Max&rsquo;s</a> latest new shows titled The Idol. 
There is no doubt the show is set for success with its all-star production team&mdash;Euphoria&rsquo;s Sam Levinson is a co-creator of the series, and Reza Fahim, Tesfaye&rsquo;s creative producer, will produce the show.
To get you excited, L'OFFICIEL has everything you need to know about this new drama.

Although not much has been released about the contents of the show, HBO announced that the plot will follow an up-and-coming pop star&rsquo;s relationship with a self-help guru who also happens to be a nightclub owner and cult leader.

Along with Tesfaye, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/lily-rose-depp-tv-debut-the-weeknd-the-idol-hbo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lily-Rose Depp</a> will also star in The Idol. Although neither of their character names has been released yet, we have no doubt these stars together will have our eyes glued to the screen. In addition, HBO has also confirmed that <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/cartier-love-is-all-film-lily-collins-troye-sivan-willow-smith" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Troye Sivan</a>, Suzana Son, Steve Kissis, Juliebeth Gonzalez, Finley Rose Slater, Maya Eshet, Tyson Ritter, Kate Lyn Sheil, and Liz Sierra will all be a part of the cast.
