Adele is back, and it’s bigger than ever! After a five-year hiatus following her chart-topping album 30, the powerhouse singer is reportedly back in the recording studio, preparing to release new music that will leave fans breathless.
Following the conclusion of her highly successful Las Vegas residency in November 2024, Adele made a conscious decision to step away from the limelight. But now, insiders have revealed that her next big move will involve more than just music—it’s Hollywood time for Adele.
In an unexpected twist, Adele is set to make her acting debut in Tom Ford’s upcoming film Cry to Heaven, alongside stars like Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Nicholas Hoult. The movie, based on Anne Rice’s 1982 novel, takes us into the fascinating world of castrati opera singers and aristocratic feuds in 18th century Italy. And to top it off? Adele will be contributing a new single to accompany the film’s release.
A source close to the project told The Sun: “The film is deeply rooted in opera, and naturally, they wanted the most iconic singer of our time involved. When Adele agreed to record a track, the producers were over the moon—new music from Adele is like finding gold. But she’s equally determined to prove her acting chops, showing the world she has more to offer than just powerhouse vocals.”
After wrapping up her Las Vegas residency in November 2024, the singer, 37, has stepped out of the spotlight. Now, insiders have spoken about how Adele’s new career move
Adele, who trained at the prestigious BRIT School, is reportedly planning to step away from the music scene and focus more on acting. It’s a move that suits her, especially considering her family life.
As one insider revealed, “An acting career provides more stability than being a touring artist. Film sets offer a set schedule—you shoot for a few months, do the press, and then you’re done. It’s the perfect balance.”
The star, who is a proud mother to 12-year-old Angelo, has often spoken about how much she dislikes the pressures of touring. In fact, during her final performance at Caesars Palace, she revealed: “I chose a residency because I hate touring, but I wanted to keep my son’s life normal. And I did that. Now I get to be with him on weekends, which I love. But it’s time for the next chapter.”
Adele has also been very open about her desire for more children with her fiancé, Rich Paul. The couple, who went public with their relationship in 2021, got engaged in August 2024 during one of Adele’s concerts in Munich. Adele has even shared her excitement for expanding their family, revealing that she’s already planning for baby names.
Insiders close to the couple believe that Adele’s foray into Hollywood is the “perfect compromise” that allows her to stay grounded and “be there for every school run and bedtime story,” while continuing to thrive in her career.
Is a new chapter in Hollywood the fresh start Adele needed? With her signature voice and acting aspirations, it seems like the sky’s the limit.
