Hurry Up Tomorrow

Hurry Up Tomorrow is a 2025 American psychological thriller film directed by Trey Edward Shults from a screenplay by Shults, Abel "the Weeknd" Tesfaye, and Reza Fahim. It serves as a companion theatrical adaptation of Tesfaye's 2025 album of the same name, while also starring Tesfaye in the main role as a fictionalized version of himself, with Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan also part of the cast. In the film, Tesfaye, struggling with depression and insomnia, gets pulled into an existential odyssey by a mysterious fan. Development on Hurry Up Tomorrow began in September 2022 after psychological stress resulted in Tesfaye losing his voice during a concert. Co-writers Tesfaye and Fahim served as the film's producers, alongside Kevin Turen and Harrison Kreiss: Hurry Up Tomorrow was one of the final films produced by Turen and is dedicated to him. The film was the source of a dispute between Turen and Tesfaye's previous collaborator, Sam Levinson. It also reportedly failed to initially attract distributors. Principal photography began by February 2023 and concluded by that July. Hurry Up Tomorrow was theatrically released in the United States on May 16, 2025, by Lionsgate. The film received largely negative reviews from critics who perceived it as a feature-length promotion of Tesfaye's album, criticizing the performances (namely of Tesfaye) and screenplay. It has grossed $4.8 million worldwide.
