The Weeknd gets candid about closing this chapter in his music career and reveals his plan to 'kill' his persona as The Weeknd and make music as Abel.

. In the series, the 33-year-old plays a nightclub owner, Tedros, who falls for a complicated pop star, Jocelyn . While filming, The Weeknd faced the challenge of shooting a scene during his sold-out show at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium.

"I had to take off the Weeknd outfit, put on Tedros’ wig, shoot with Jocelyn, then go back to being The Weeknd," he says inside the publication about filming at his show."It was tough to go from one head to another. Then, after the concert, I lost my voice. No voice came out at all. That’s never happened before."

Speaking more on that moment, the"Blinding Lights" singer shared how losing his voice due to acting put his career and creativity into perspective."My secret skill is that I don’t panic,” he added about the show."When everyone around me is worried, I get very still. But I did panic when I lost my voice. I had to rest and reflect and think about The Weeknd and Tedros and all that had happened with the show.

Reflecting on the start of his career, The Weeknd shares that he enjoyed the mystery that came with his persona when he first began making music. As he star rose and more people began to recognize him, he had to make a change.
