The Weeknd, Jenna Ortega, Barry Keoghan To Star In Trey Edward Shults’ Next Film – Deadline

EXCLUSIVE: Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye is set to make his feature acting debut, teaming with Waves helmer Trey Edward Shults on an untitled film that also stars Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan.

Plot details are being kept under wraps with the pic currently in production.

Shults will direct from a script he co-wrote with Tesfaye and his producing partner Reza Fahim. Tesfaye, Fahim, Kevin Turen and Harrison Kreiss are producing with Shultz and Ortega exec producing.

Shults and Tesfaye have been working secretly on the film for months, with Ortega and Keoghan signing on after being blown away by the script. Ortega and Keoghan have been two of the more sought-after talents in town, with the each sorting through several offers.


Besides landing Ortega and Keoghan, Shults and Tesfaye also have assembled a below-the-line team that includes director of photography Chayse Irvin (Blonde). Composer and producer OPN, aka Daniel Lopatin (Good Time, Uncut Gems), is scoring the film alongside The Weeknd.

I just saw a clip of him in this. Whatever he’s doing here isn’t acting either.

I never knew the phrase “Shut the **** up” could sound so much like a question lol.
