Season 3 ofEuphoria is always something to be doubtful about. This time, it's an important actress who will not return.
Season 3 ofEuphoria will it be released before 2030? This is the question that the American media ask almost every month. The HBO series, currently made up of two seasons and two special episodes, should have a sequel. But the sticks are piling up in his wheels. Firstly, she is a bit of a victim of her success: having propelled a good part of her cast (Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Hunter Schafer) to the firmament of the star system, she has to deal with more than busy schedules.
Secondly, with the age of the actors dangerously approaching thirty, creator Sam Levinson had to take his characters out of their high school and convince the channel's executives.
Third, said Sam Levinson has built up a bit of a reputation. His laborious writing process and the toxic-chaotic atmosphere of his critical failure were discussed in the press.

Some came, after several postponements, to doubt the existence of a third season, at least until HBO tried to reassure: Euphoria will continue… but not with everyone.

A priori, it was therefore his character who jumped. The ellipse announced by certain American media sources would therefore eject arcs to focus mainly on the heroes in their adult lives. However, this is far from being the end for Reid, who also pursued a Hollywood career in the wake ofEuphoria. Recently seen in another HBO series, The Last of Usshe will headline Teyana Taylor's first feature film, Get Litepour Paramount.
As for this season 3, despite the rumors of yet another postponement and the general perplexity at the sight of the overloaded schedule of Zendaya, Jacob Elordi or Syndey Sweeney, it should enter production in July 2025. The boss of HBO Casey Bloys wants to be confident. “Nothing has changed” he assured at a press conference. “We are happy. We are moving forward. It's eight episodes. »
