The weakest series of the year is coming soon and will be revealed in the final trailer

It headlined Cannes after screening the first two episodes out of competition. The Idol arrives on HBO in a few days and continues to reveal itself in a new trailer, slightly less sultry but just as rhythmic.

The series, co-created by Sam Levinson (Euphoria), Abel Tesfaye (The Weeknd) and Reza Fahim, stars Lily Rose-Depp as a singer determined to reclaim her title as America’s hottest and sexiest pop star. He suffered a nervous breakdown after his last tour. Jocelyn then meets Tedros, a nightclub owner with a troubled past who ignites a fire in her. Will this new romance take her to the top of her game, or will she sink to the depths of her soul?

Behind-the-scenes controversy, which Tesfai brushed aside in a recent interview, and the first images have already set the tone for the project, which was presented as “Provocative, a little risky, a little dangerous“ By Lily Rose-Depp herself. Because if the idol is meant to convey the excesses of the environment, critics of the Croisette lament its frivolous side, which is too ubiquitous.

The series is therefore expected to take a turn and it is highly likely that it will be responded to on social networks. But we have to wait for the transmission of the first episodes from June 5, so that the subscribers can form their own opinion. We remind you that the series will be available from us on Prime Video through Warner pass.
