The Batman actor Berry Keoghan recently collaborated with The Weeknd and Jenna Ortega in new film, Hurry Up Tomorrow.

Directed by Trey Edward Shults, the latest released film has a complex storyline based on an insomniac musician, who is on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Keoghan opened that working with The Weeknd, originally named as Abel Tesfaye, was a great experience for him.

While talking to Parade, the Saltburn actor admitted, "I knew this was going to be an experience and a unique movie.”

"I wanted to be part of Abel's vision, and I'm a massive fan of Trey and a massive fan of Jenna. It's a no-brainer when you see that on a page, and I'm up for this sort of challenge of it all”, he continued.

Barry is all set to star as The Beatles’ Ringo Starr in a biopic. When asked if he going to utilize this experience of working with Abel in portraying Ringo.

The 32-year-old simply said, "Yeah, I know Abel as Abel, and that's sort of a different thing.

"It's sort of like we're seeing a new person. I'm always curious and observant, and I take in what I can”, he explained.

For the unversed, director Sam Mendes is working on The Beatles tetralogy that will also star Paul Mescal, Harris Dickinson and Joseph Quinn.
