Even Zendaya is unsure if ‘Euphoria’ will return for Season 3: ‘It’s beyond me’
Zendaya says even she’s not sure if the series will ever return for a third season, according to Variety.HBO announced March 25 that Season 3 of “Euphoria” was being postponed — but that the network and series creator Sam Levinson “remain committed to making an exceptional third season.”“In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities,” an HBO spokesperson told Variety at the time.Zendaya, who plays Rue on the HBO series, told Variety Tuesday night — at the LA premiere of “Challengers” — that she wants the show to return, but is unaware of when or if Season 3 will begin production.“If it’s right for the characters and everything turns out the way it should, of course” she told Variety about a third season — adding that she’s “not in charge” of whether or not the show will return, even though she’s an executive producer of the series.“But it’s beyond me,” she said.Production on Season 3 had already been delayed due to the double-whammy WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes in Hollywood and the death last July of co-star Angus Cloud, who played drug dealer Fez. Cloud was 25 and his death was ruled an accidental overdose due to a combination of fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, benzodiazepine and other drugs.HBO announced last November that “Euphoria” would return in 2025 — but that was before the March postponement.Days after HBO announced the postponement of “Euphoria,” co-star Storm Reid, who plays Rue’s younger sister, Gia, spoke publicly about the news in an interview with Variety at the opening of USC’s new School of Dramatic Arts’ Drama Center.“I would hope the viewers, the audience will be able to finish the show,” she said.

Meghan Markle’s American Riviera Orchard has a personal touch that went unnoticed
write way to handle her business ventures.The Duchess of Sussex, 42, recently dropped her latest project, a new lifestyle company called American Riviera Orchard.The label will be releasing products such as jams, jellies and even cookware, and as it turns out, the brand’s logo has a nice personal touch from Markle herself.As royal fans may know, the former actress used to do calligraphy as a side hustle before she married into the Firm.The American Riviera Orchard emblem is actually Markle’s very own handwriting and design.Before starring on the hit legal drama “Suits,” she worked at the Paper Source where she coached calligraphy and bookbinding in the mid 2000s.She even penciled the wedding invitations for Paula Patton and Robin Thicke for their 2005 nuptials.In her old blog, The Tig, she expressed her passion for the fancy penmanship arts.The website was shut down in 2017 just before her wedding to Prince Harry a year later.“I think handwritten notes are a lost art form,” she scribed in one post. “The idea of someone taking the time to put pen to paper is really special.”The defunct blog also has a special connection to the mother of two’s new company.American Riviera Orchard’s homepage says that the website was “Made by Article” — a digital business based in Toronto.The company also worked on The Tig, with Markle once leaving a glowing review for them.“There is a reason I have worked with Ryan and the talented team at Article for a decade: their attention to detail, their creativity and care, and the thoughtful approach to design as well as to the user experience,” she praised on Article’s website.
