Two of the music industry’s biggest icons -- Selena Gomez and Drake -- are finally coming together for a project, but before you steer into a different direction - no, it is not for a song but for a psychological thriller. Yes, Selena is all set to star in a movie called ‘Spiral’, which will be executively produced by hip-hop stalwart Drake.

The award-winning songstress has earlier acted in movies like ‘Ramona and Beezus’ (2010), ‘Monte Carlo’ (2011), and ‘Spring Breakers’ (2012) along with a few other projects; therefore, it will be interesting to see Gomez once again showing her acting prowess in front of the camera. The singer-songwriter also wrapped up Hulu's ‘Only Murders In The Building’ recently. Drake, on the other hand, had also executively produced HBO’s award-winning show ‘Euphoria’ in 2020.
