About Euphoria Season 2
The renewal came as no shock, considering the show is among the most talked-about programs on TV — as well as a streaming hit, with the season 2 premiere being the most-watched episode of any HBO series ever on Max, attracting over 14 million viewers across various platforms — and features a genuine movie star, also known as. Zendaya, leading the way.
Following the surprising occurrences of the Euphoria season 2 finale — featuring a school-play revelation, physical altercations, an arrest, and the loss of a beloved character — we eagerly anticipate what antics Rue and her friends will devise for the next season. From casting information to possible storylines, here’s all we know up to now about season 3 of “Euphoria.”
Release Date Of Euphoria Season 3
HBO has not announced a formal premiere date for "Euphoria" season 3, but it is expected that the third season will be released sometime in 2026.
Season 3 of "Euphoria" was expected to start filming in spring 2024, but production was postponed by a year because of the SAG and WGA strikes — shooting officially began on Feb 10, 2025, according to a social media update from the network.
Regarding the lengthy gap between seasons, "it takes us about a month to film each of these episodes." "It takes some time," stated Colman Domingo — the Oscar-nominated actor portraying NA sponsor Ali Mohammed on "Euphoria," for which he received an Emmy — shared with Extra. "It takes a long time due to the numerous frames." If you observe the show, there are numerous very small scenes. [Creator] Sam [Levinson] is incredibly detail-oriented in a beautifully impressive manner. "It will be worth the wait."
Euphoria season 3 cast
Even with a busy work schedule that featured the consecutive launches of "Dune: Part Two" and "Challengers" in the last year, Zendaya will officially return as our star character Rue Bennett.
In addition to Colman Domingo returning as Ali, the remaining cast will include Dominic Fike as Elliot and Eric Dane as Cal. Martha Kelly is being promoted to series regular for the third season as Laurie — the drug dealer whom fans will recall Rue still owes a considerable amount of money after season two — along with Chloe Cherry as Faye. "Suicide Squad" performer Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and "Babyteeth" talent Toby Wallace have also been added to the cast for season three.
Plot Of Euphoria season 3
The third season of the show has much to address, ranging from Rue and Jules' unresolved romantic ties to Maddy and Cassie's persistent friendship conflict, the aftermath of Lexi's revealing play, and the family tensions in the Jacobs household, particularly after Nate reported his father to the police. Additionally, as previously stated, Rue has a considerable debt to the perilous Laurie.
Nevertheless, it remains uncertain whether and how "Euphoria" season 3 will address all of these different plotlines, since a time jump is scheduled for the upcoming episodes. That time leap will supposedly catch up with the characters once they've graduated from East Highland. "It's essential since there's a limit to the high school drama you can handle," Zendaya stated during an October 2024 interview with Entertainment Weekly's The Awards podcast.
The actress added: “It will be intriguing to observe and comprehend these characters beyond the high school setting and how everything we witnessed during their childhood and high school years influences the adulthood they attain and who they evolve into in a much larger world. “I’ll also be curious to see what unfolds.”
With a longer wait ahead, Euphoria Season 3 promises to bring a fresh take on its characters' lives beyond high school. Stay tuned for more updates as the drama unfolds!
