Colman Domingo On The Reason Behind ‘Euphoria’s Season 3 Delay
deadline.comColman Domingo explains why Euphoria Season 3 has been delayed, with the HBO show last airing in February 2022. In a new interview, Domingo opened up about why the series that stars Zendaya has been pushed back and said it had to do with creator Sam Levinson adjusting the story to reflect the real world. “[Sam is] a person who writes and rewrites and writes and rewrites again, because I think he’s wrestling with what’s important,” Domingo told GQ in an interview recently. “He’s responding immediately to what the ills of the world are.
