‘The Idol’ Teaser Announcement
Along with Depp and Tesfaye, Troye Sivan, Suzanna Son, and Steve Zissis were announced as series regulars on the show with Melanie Liburd, Tunde Adebimpe, Elizabeth Berkley Lauren, Nico Hiraga, and Anne Heche in recurring roles. It remains uncertain how the reported reworking of the series impacted the show’s original casting, if at all.
The footage begins announcing the “sick and twisted minds” of series co-creators Abel ‘The Weeknd’ Tesfaye and Sam Levinson, who is also behind the network’s hit series ‘Euphoria’. The teaser then goes into a hyperactive montage of Hollywood mansions, colorful parties, cocaine ingestion, and fast cars.
“More, more, more, orgy!” yells a voice in the trailer.
The trailer concludes with a tense interaction between Depp’s character and an unrevealing figure, suppose to be Tesfaye’s character, that asks, “Do you trust me?”
“Not really,” Depp’s character says with a smile.
‘The Idol’ has not yet declared its premiere date, as the teaser concludes with a simple “coming soon.”
