‘Euphoria’ Season 3 Shoot Delayed; HBO Says It’s ‘Committed to Making’ New Episodes Amid Report Season Was Scrapped
variety.comEllise Shafer “Euphoria” Season 3 has been delayed at HBO. “HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” an HBO spokesperson told Variety. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.” The scripts for Season 3 are still being written.
The news comes after a report that the show’s third season has been scrapped entirely. Production on the show’s third season had long been delayed, in part due to the Hollywood strikes and the July 2023 death of Angus Cloud, who played local drug dealer Fez.
The show has also launched most of its cast — including Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney and Hunter Schafer — into the upper echelon of Hollywood, making it harder to coordinate production schedules.
In November 2023, HBO confirmed that the show’s third season was expected to premiere in 2025, meaning there would be at least a three-year gap between seasons since Season 2 debuted in January 2022.
