The show, which stars Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Alexa Demie, Sydney Sweeney, Maude Apatow, Jacob Elordi and Angus Cloud, got renewed for Season 3 about a year go, which was around the same time the Season 2 finale aired.

ORIGINAL STORY (January 20, 2023): While it may still be a while until Euphoria returns, on the bright side, filming for Season 3 will begin next month.Īccording to Production Weekly and Collider, production for Season 3 of the HBO series will begin in February. Stay tuned for more updates on Season 3 of Euphoria. We should be getting scripts and hearing about next season soon-ish, but I’m totally in the dark!”

She said, “I honestly don’t know a single thing. The publication recently interviewed Maude Apatow, who portrays Lexi on the HBO series, and based on her input, filming isn’t occurring anytime soon.

#EUPHORIA UPDATE#
UPDATE (February 24, 2023): Months after it was reported that production for Season 3 of Euphoria was going to start in February, it has been confirmed there has been a delay.Īccording to Vogue, “Season 3 not scheduled to begin shooting until the latter half of 2023.”

“We can’t start shooting, so the delivery of that show - ideally in 2025 - will be determined on when we can pick back up with Sam, who at this point is all pencils down and just finishing posts on Idol.” He is a freshman at Yale University.“ Euphoria is one of those that we had begun writing in tandem with post-production on Idol but at this point, we don’t have countless scripts,” HBO Drama Chief Francesca Ors told Variety. Samuel Getachew is a poet, writer, and model from Oakland. Previews of the new season have depicted similar visual and emotional themes as the first, but if season two cannot find a thesis to accompany its visuals, Euphoria will find itself right where it left off. With the second season comes an opportunity for the show to redeem itself and retract that permission-or to double down on its faults. It felt like tacit permission for all of our most irresponsible decisions. Like many of my peers, I was riveted by the first season of Euphoria’s acting and production and the relatability of its characters. And by simply showing what it shows, how it shows it, it inadvertently endorses it anyway. The problem with Euphoria isn’t that it is attempting to endorse what it illustrates the problem with Euphoria is that it isn’t attempting to do anything at all. The last thing we needed was the conglomeration of all of our local sources of social pressure into one glimmery, sexy national emblem for what it meant to be an angsty teen. Teenagers may have already been overexposed and over-adultified and already participating in the kinds of things Euphoria depicts-but the last thing we needed was a vehicle to further romanticize our self-destructiveness. At my high school and at neighboring schools, similar stories were not uncommon.Īlexa Demie in a scene from Euphoria's second season. Jules Vaughn, played by Hunter Schafer, has her earliest sexual experiences with a rotation of much older men she meets online. Cassie Howard, played by 24-year-old Sydney Sweeney, suffers from her promiscuous reputation and is the victim of revenge porn. Kat Hernandez, played by model Barbie Ferreira, reacts to an experience of nonconsensual recording during sex by becoming a camgirl in a misguided attempt to reclaim control of her sexuality. Maddy Perez, played by 30-year-old Alexa Demie, is in an on-and-off relationship with her physically and verbally abusive boyfriend, Nate Jacobs, played by 24-year-old Jacob Elordi. For each of the show’s dysfunctional lead characters, I could point to a peer with similar problems. But even beyond the geographic proximities of the cast, the show felt like it spoke to my classmates and me. Its star, Zendaya, had been born and raised in Oakland and was something of a hometown hero Angus Cloud, a first-time actor who became a fan favorite as the lovable drug dealer Fezco and the show’s breakout star, had been raised in Oakland too, and he and Zendaya had gone to the same high school at different times. Euphoria debuted the summer before my senior year of high school in Oakland.
