Sam Levinson recently dropped juicy details about Euphoria Season 3 with the British press. During the convo, he discussed where some of the lead characters are in the future.
“Five years felt like a natural place because if they’d gone to college they’d be out of college at that time,” he said of where the show picks up. “We basically pick up Rue [Zendaya] south of the border in Mexico, in debt to Laurie [Martha Kelly], trying to come up with some very innovative ways to pay it off.”
“Jules [Schafer] is in art school, very nervous about having a career as a painter and trying to avoid responsibility at all costs. Maddy [Alexa Demie] is working in Hollywood at a talent agency for a manager, she’s obviously got her own side hustles going. And Lexi [Maude Apatow] is an assistant to a showrunner played by Sharon Stone, who is just absolutely delightful and a true icon.”
He continued, “And then Cassie [Sweeney] is living in the suburbs with Nate [Elordi], they’re engaged and she’s very addicted to social media and envious of what appears to be the big lives that all of her high school classmates are living at this point in time. I feel strongly this is our best season yet… I will say that Cassie and Nate do in fact get married. I’m confirming it. And I promise that it will be an unforgettable night.”
Season 3 of Euphoria will introduce several new faces to the ensemble cast, including Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, Kadeem Hardison, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Toby Wallace, Darrell Britt-Gibson, Priscilla Delgado, James Landry Hébert, and Anna Van Patten.
Zendaya will reprise her role as Rue Bennett, while Jacob Elordi returns as the complex Nate Jacobs. Hunter Schafer is back as the intriguing Jules Vaughn, and Eric Dane will once again portray the troubled Cal Jacobs.
Also returning are Alexa Demie as the fierce Maddy Perez, Sydney Sweeney as the conflicted Cassie Howard, and Dominic Fike as the enigmatic Elliot. Martha Kelly will reprise her role as the chilling Laurie, Maude Apatow returns as Lexi Howard, Chloe Cherry is back as Faye, and Colman Domingo will continue his powerful portrayal of Ali Muhammad.
