BLACKPINK member Jennie will appear in the upcoming HBO TV series The Idol, where the cast is headed by the Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp, reports Variety. Co-created by the Weeknd (real name Abel Tesfaye), Sam Levinson of Euphoria fame and Reza Fahim, "The Idol" is set against the backdrop of the music industry. The plot follows a self-help guru and cult leader who develops a complicated relationship with an up-and-coming pop idol.
