The Weeknd recently made a cameo in Safdie Brothers film Uncut Gems, which NME called an “anxiety-inducing thriller that may give you a heart attack”.
It was recently revealed, though, that The Weeknd wasn’t originally intended to star in Uncut Gems. In the final film, he played a pop star who gets into a fight with the protagonist Howard Ratner (Adam Sandler).
