  • The Weeknd to star in film he co-wrote, produced opposite Jenna Ortega

    By IANS

    LOS ANGELES: Musician ‘The Weeknd’, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye will have his first starring role in a feature film that he wrote and is also producing.

    The picture, which is currently untitled and has been kept shrouded in mystery regarding its plot, genre and the like is being directed by Trey Edward Shults, the filmmaker behind ‘Waves’ and ‘It Comes at Night’.

    Shults also co-wrote the movie and is executive-producing it. We do know that it is shooting in Los Angeles, but aside from that the “logline is being kept under wraps,” reports Variety.

    Whether comedy or tragedy, action-adventure or musical extravaganza, this impressively vague feature has lined up a top-shelf cast.

    Beyond The Weeknd, a Grammy-winning recording juggernaut, the film also stars Jenna Ortega, the star of ‘Wednesday’ and ‘Scream VI’, as well as Barry Keoghan, the Oscar-nominated actor from ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’ and ‘The Killing of a Sacred Deer’.

    The film will also be produced by Tesfaye’s producing partner Reza Fahim, who is also a co-writer, as well as Kevin Turen and Harrison Kreiss.

    Chayse Irvin will handle the cinematography, while composer and producer OPN will be scoring the film alongside The Weeknd.

    OPN has previously done the scores for ‘Good Time’ and ‘Uncut Gems’, in which The Weeknd had a cameo role as himself.

    The Weeknd will also star in the hotly anticipated HBO series ‘The Idol’, co-created with Euphoria’s Sam Levinson and Fahim.

  • Barry Keoghan to play ‘Billy the Kid’ in new biopic

    By Express News Service

    Barry Keoghan has been cast to play the infamous outlaw Billy the Kid in a new biopic, which is set to be directed by Bart Layton. Barry has been in the news recently ever since he received a nomination for The Banshees of Inisherin.

    Barry is Irish by birth like the real-life Billy the Kid and lost his mother at a young age. The film is therefore a passion project for the actor. Barry reportedly first pitched the idea to Bart during their collaboration on the heist film American Animals. They came close to setting up the project but unfortunately, the attempt was delayed due to the pandemic. 

    The film is written by Hunter Andrews and produced by Ed Guiney. The production for the film is expected to commence only in the first half of 2024. Barry Keoghan also appeared in The Batman as an Unseen Arkham Prisoner in 2022. He is awaiting the release of the Apple TV+ mini-series Masters of Air, in which he will be seen alongside Austin Butler. He will also appear in Saltburn, a heavily-promising film from Emerald Fennell.
