The star-studded ensemble of “The Idol” has generated a lot of buzz, and the Rolling Stone article that “The Idol” production had “gone wildly, disgustingly off the rails” has also contributed to the excessive buzz around the HBO series’ ahead of its premiere.
Together with Sam Levinson and Reza Fahim, Tesfaye co-created the show. Following Amy Seimetz’s departure from the programme in April 2022 “due to a change in creative directions,” Levinson assumed control of the series’ directing responsibilities. According to those who spoke to Rolling Stone, the show was taking a “disturbing” turn, which was stressful for the staff. Both HBO and Depp have denied.
