The trailer starts with rock and roll music playing in the background. Then we see a glimpse of a character who could be a set choreographer. She is seen saying, “Alright music. 7, 8. Lick it. Spank it. Drop it.” The main protagonist Lily-Rose Depp can be seen dancing to a music video and that gives us a hint of how becoming a pop star and an idol is not an easy journey at all. In the midst of becoming a star, Depp's character gets involved in drugs, affairs, sex, orgies, controversies and scandals. 'The Idol' is set to release by the end of 2022.

Orgy.” An actor then says, “Why don’t you just be yourself.” To which Lily-Rose Depp’s character responds, “Because there’s nothing about me that’s relatable.” Then we see another character whispering, “Do you trust me” and Lily replies, “Not really.” Towards end, we see the same character having a sensuous make-out session on set with her. Overall, the teaser-trailer has given us a hint of what the plot of the series is going to be about.
