Agreed I might also be bias because I am a huge fan of the Weekend but the Fnaf Movie was not as good as I expected I expected more to be honest. If The Maze is a combination of the Fnaf Games than sure why not. The Games have more better content than the movie if they wanted to combine the games. I am one of the people who agrees that the VR game Help Wanted has a lot of content that could make for a really good maze. It has a good story and I think it could fit HHN. Also an Ice Nine Kills maze sounds fun.
To reiterate what I mean by what I spoke--but to me; The Weeknd feels very much apt to that of what makes sense on the perspective of a headliner nature and in how much there is to promote.
I use logic similar to Ghostbusters as I brought up on the HHN33 thread, and give this:
- The Weeknd's Final Album is releasing This Year. The first lead single is seemingly going to be released on February 16th; Abel Tesfaye's birthday; with it likely releasing around May/June.
- The Weeknd has worked (is working) on a untitled film directed by Trey Edwards Schults; featuring Abel Tesfaye playing The Weeknd alongside Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan. Speculation and rumors have pointed to it being a horror film; with the premise being of The Weeknd losing his voice at a concert, and being kidnapped. (There have also been rumors of the final album having a connection to that of the film directly, similar to Pink Floyd's The Wall).
- Producers affiliated with The Weeknd have indicated that the concert tours will be taking place in the North American territories as opposed to doing Australia or Asia (which I assume would boil down due to the geographical climates requiring the rescheduling that has seemingly been forced due to the cancellation of shows last year).
- John Murdy has had active hands on The Weeknd with 2022's AHN, and had a hand in giving Singapore assets and allocations for that of After Hours Til Dawn in Singapore. From interviews, Abel has also seemingly had an expression of gratitude towards how the HHN teams have adapted the works of the artist.
I expect to be wrong, but I am really hoping to god that I am right. When I think of IP Headliners, it's The Weeknd alongside maybe two other IP's.
