The Idol on HBO: Everything We Know About the Salacious Series
YouTube/HBO
From the creator of Euphoria comes another shocking drama.
The Idol was the most controversial show in town before it even got a premiere date, but maybe that's how the creators like it. After all, the steamy new HBO series is being billed as a toxic love story from the “sick and twisted minds” of The Weeknd (born Abel Tesfaye) and Sam Levinson, the latter being the nepo-baby son of Barry Levinson who created Euphoria and directed Malcolm & Marie.
So what's all the fuss about? Here's everything we know (and have heard) about the series:
What’s it about?
After her last tour is cut short by a nervous breakdown, the up-and-coming pop star Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp) falls under the influence of Tedros, a shadowy nightclub impresario (The Weeknd). 
Who else is in the cast?
Oh, it's stacked. Dan Levy, Hari Nef, Hank Azaria, Troye Sivan, Jennie from Blackpink, Suzanna Son, Rachel Sennott, Jane Adams, Moses Sumney, Eli Roth, Mike Dean, Karl Glusman, and the late Anne Heche are all listed on the show's IMDb page, though apparently, some roles that were shot ended up being scrapped from the final version. 
Why are people skeptical?
Levinson was already a, let's say, questionable figure in the HBO-verse, having run the Euphoriaset somewhat chaotically. He wrote every episode himself (to the chagrin of Barbie Ferreira) and is alleged to be kind of a control enthusiast, hovering somewhere between auteur and nightmare. So it came as a surprise, maybe, but not a shock when Rolling Stone published a bombshell article about The Idol being an expensive mess.
The key takeaways: Levinson halted production after 80% of the planned series had been shot, scrapped everything, fired the director Amy Seimetz and took over, ballooning the budget and throwing production into chaos. The Weeknd was busy with his music career but apparently wanted more of the spotlight, Levinson made last-minute changes to every script (this causes huge production delays and is super expensive in the industry), people were hired and fired quickly and without notice, and the sex scenes…are gonna be controversial. Multiple insiders who spoke to RScalled the original version of the story a “satire” of exploitation in Hollywood but fear that the finished product will just be plain exploitative. One telling detail is that while Levinson was busy with Euphoria for much of the early days of shooting, he did apparently show up to watch Lily-Rose Depp's first sex scene.
The Weeknd then responded to the article in a way that made people really scratch their heads. In the Rolling Stone article, sources claimed the show was overhauled because the singer felt it was too focused on the “female perspective.” 
“It was like any rape fantasy that any toxic man would have in the show—and then the woman comes back for more because it makes her music better,” one production member told Rolling Stoneof the revised version. 
So how did Tesfaye respond? On March 1, he tweeted, “@RollingStone, did we upset you?” alongside a scene from the show where his character calls Rolling Stone “irrelevant” and turns down a cover on Jocelyn's behalf.

Aside from the fact that The Weeknd appears to have missed the point of this scene entirely, people on social media felt this was an immature response to pretty serious allegations.

When does it come out?
In spite of the chaos surrounding it, the hotly anticipated series is finally set to premiere on June 4 at 9 p.m. 
What are the reviewers saying? 
Nothing good.
The first reviews rolled in after the HBO Max series premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on Monday, May 22, and woof, they're not great, Bob!
Here's a sampling of some headlines published on Tuesday, May 23: 
“The Idol Is More Toxic and Way Worse Than You’ve Heard” —Rolling Stone 
“The Idol, Cannes Review: Lily Rose Depp's ‘Girl Power’ Can't Save This Colossal Sleazy Flop” —The Telegraph
“The Idol's Depiction of Rape Culture Is Shocking and Lazy” —Daily Beast
“The Idol Review: Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd in an HBO Series That’s More Regressive Than Transgressive” —The Hollywood Reporter
“The Weeknd and Sam Levinson’s The Idol,Starring Lily-Rose Depp, Plays Like a Sordid Male Fantasy: TV Review” —Variety 
What are the cast and creators saying?
Lily-Rose Depp answered questions about the gratuitous sex during a press conferences at the Cannes Film Festival. 
“I think that something about Jocelyn is just that she's a born and bred performer,” she said, per People. “I think that extends to every aspect of her life, not just her professional life. I think that the way that she dresses, for example, is her trying to tell you something all the time or say something to the people that she's around or express herself in some kind of way.”
She added, “And I also think that the occasional bareness of the character physically mirrors the bareness that we get to see emotionally in her.”

In the same press conference, Levinson said, “It's funny, I think that sometimes things that might be revolutionary are taken too far. I think we live in a very sexualized world.”
He continued, “There's two things that happen, when you have a character that has such a strong sense of self and such a strong sexual sense, is you simultaneously end up underestimating her, because you're not quite sure. ‘Well, why is she doing this? Why is she wearing this? Why is she singing about this?’”
“And at the same time, it's also what alerts people, it's what attracts an audience,” he added. “It's what attracts an imagination. And I think it's very true to what almost every pop star is doing these days.”

What do you think? Is the criticism too much or is justified?
