The movie will be an extension of The Weeknd's upcoming album of the same name, with Trey Edward Shults previously confirmed to direct.
“Abel is a visionary whose art cannot be confined by any single medium,” said Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson.
“With Hurry Up Tomorrow, in partnership with Trey, his musical universe expands onto the big screen with a psychological thriller that will usher in a new cinematic experience for fans. We are thrilled to be bringing it to audiences worldwide.”

The new film from Birds of Prey director Cathy Yan focuses on "a desperate gallerist who conspires to sell a dead guy at Art Basel Miami", and has been co-written by Yan and James Pedersen.
The actor is also set to return to Netflix hit Wednesday for its upcoming second season, which is currently filming.
The streamer confirmed that production had begun in September, with Ortega teasing in a behind-the-scenes first-look clip: "If we showed you any more, your eyes would bleed… and I’m not that generous."
Hurry Up Tomorrow is yet to confirm a release date. Wednesday streams on Netflix. Season 2 is in production.
