The Weeknd shares his collaboration with Future.

“Double Fantasy” featuring Future is the first original song off The Weeknd’s upcoming HBO Original series The Idol and includes production from himself along with Mike Dean and additional co-production from Metro Boomin. The Weeknd performed the song for the first time during Metro Boomin's Coachella set.

The new series is co-created by Sam Levinson (HBO’s “Euphoria”), Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye and Reza Fahim, and stars Abel Tesfaye and Lily-Rose Depp. The Idol will premiere at this year’s annual Festival De Cannes in France.

The series will air on HBO and be available to stream on Max.

The song marks The Weeknd and Future’s fifth collaboration after the two first came together as featured artists on producer Mike WiLL Made-It‘s 2015 single “Drinks on Us,” which also featured Swae Lee. They've also linked up on “All I Know” from The Weeknd's Starboy LP, and “Comin Out Strong” on Future’s album HNDRXX.

“Double Fantasy” featuring Future is out now on XO Records/Republic Records. The Idol will be debuted on 4 June.
