Jennie’s fans loved her appearance in the newly released teaser and twitted on it. One of them said, “I don't care how many crimes Jennie's character in the idol will commit, we will be defending her and her actions. in my eyes she does not have a single flaw.”

While another fan wrote, “the idol jennie you are very dear to me you will never be in the wrong”.

Another fan said, “Jennie using Jennie Ruby Jane as her actress name instead of Jennie Kim is so smart… like jenniekim is the idol and jennie ruby jane for her other career and she's basically separating that persona from kpop. Also people can just search that and find her instagram super easily.”

HBO’s The Idol also marks the final appearance of Anne Heche, who died in August 2022 shortly after filming concluded.
