“Hurry Up Tomorrow” is the new film from Trey Edward Shults, the filmmaker behind films such as “Krisha,” “It Comes At Night” and “Waves.” The film acts as a companion piece to Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye’s sixth studio album of the same name, which was produced in conjunction with the film. It stars Tesfaye as a fictionalized version of himself, an insomniac musician on the verge of a mental breakdown who is pulled into an existential odyssey by a mysterious stranger, with actors Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan also starring. Shults was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his work and experience making the film, which you can listen to or watch below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will open in theaters on May 16th from Lionsgate. Thank you, and enjoy!
