The Weeknd stars in the HBO series with Lily-Rose Depp, daughter of Johnny Depp. Depp is Jocelyn, a pop star, who rose to fame Britney Spears-style.

On the day she is rehearsing to record a video clip, in her mansion, an ex-lover posted online a close-up of her, with semen on her face. The Weeknd is Tedros, the charismatic leader of a cult, and owner of a music club.
