The Weeknd And Jenna Ortega's ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow' New On Streaming This Week
Jenna Ortega in "Hurry Up Tomorrow." Hurry Up Tomorrow — a psychological thriller starring 'The Weeknd,' aka Abel Tesfaye, and Jenna Ortega — is reportedly coming to digital streaming this week. Hurry Up Tomorrow is part of a three-pronged project from The Weeknd that also includes the release of a new album and concert tour. Hurry Up Tomorrow was released in theaters on May 16 in conjunction with the start of the artist's concert tour. The official summary for Hurry Up Tomorrow reads, 'A musician plagued by insomnia is pulled into an odyssey with a stranger who begins to unravel the very core of his existence.' The Weeknd stars as Abel, who is a fictionalized version of himself, while Ortega plays the stranger, Anima, and Barry Keoghan plays Abel's manager, Lee. The Weeknd co-wrote the screenplay with Reza Fahim and director Trey Edward Shults. Per a report by streaming tracker When to Stream, Hurry Up Tomorrow will be released on Friday, June 6, on digital streaming via premium video on demand. While When to Stream is typically accurate with its PVOD reports, it noted that the distributor of Hurry Up Tomorrow, Lionsgate, has not announced or confirmed the release and it is subject to change. Hurry Up Tomorrow is currently available for pre-order on Prime Video for $24.99, which is also the film's digital purchase price. Since digital rentals are generally $5 less than purchase prices, viewers can expect to rent Hurry Up Tomorrow for $19.99 for 48 hours. In addition to Prime Video, Hurry Up Tomorrow will be available on a variety of digital platforms including Apple TV, Fandango at Home and YouTube. While Hurry Up Tomorrow star Jenna Ortega admitted in a February interview with Entertainment Weekly that she initially didn't feel right for the role of Anima, she came to realize 'through conversation and built trust with Trey and Abel, it felt like a team and vision I wanted to work with." The Wednesday star described for EW that Hurry Up Tomorrow is an "experimental telling of what it means to be an artist who is changing, evolving, managing their past while trying not to fear the unknown. What a mental block can do to one's sense of self." Speaking specifically about her character in Hurry Up Tomorrow, Ortega told EW, 'It was my understanding while shooting that my character, Anima, is a version of Abel. A side of him that the persona the Weeknd doesn't show as much … There were many iterations of Ani as the new script drafts came in, but I just loved that she consistently took no s--- and felt everything intensely." Rated R, Hurry Up Tomorrow, starring The Weeknd, Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan, is expected to arrive on PVOD on Friday.
