Welcome to MsMojo and today were breaking down the drama behind Sam Levinsons new HBO Show The Idol starring The Weeknd and Lily Rose-Depp.

Upcoming HBO drama series The Idol has undergone massive rewrites and reshoots, reportedly due to the fact that Co-creator and star Abel Tesfaye (aka The Weeknd) felt the show was leaning too far into a female perspective. This led to the departure of original director Amy Seimetz in April of 2022, who has since been replaced with Euphoria creator and showrunner Sam Levinson.
