The Weeknd is raising eyebrows again.
He is promoting his upcoming album, ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow,’ which includes a motion picture starring Jenna Ortega.
The singer has hinted at a change in his music for years, stating, “I’m getting ready to close the Weeknd chapter. I’ll still make music, maybe as Abel, maybe as The Weeknd. But I still want to kill The Weeknd.”
The billboards reading “The End is Near” have sparked mixed reactions from fans on social media, with some speculating on the meaning behind the message.
Lionsgate has set May 16, 2025, as the North American release date for The Weeknd’s feature film debut, ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow.’
