According to RadarOnline, the concern is not about Adele's talent, but about how harshly the entertainment world can treat musicians who transition into acting. An insider told the outlet that Paul, a prominent sports agent, is 'very protective' of Adele and fears the emotional toll that intense criticism could take on her.
The singer's reported film debut is based on Anne Rice's 1982 novel Cry to Heaven, a historical drama set in 18th-century Italy that follows the lives of castrati opera singers. Adele is expected to star alongside Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Nicholas Hoult, marking her first major step into dramatic cinema.
