Euphoria Confirms Filming Date for Season 3 Amidst Cancellation Speculation
Nearly all the main cast members will be back for this season
As rumors about the potential cancellation of Euphoria began to spread, Casey Bloys, the head of Warner Bros.’ streaming service, took the opportunity to clear up any confusion at a recent event. He confirmed that the series is not coming to an end and that plans for its future are already in motion. This news has reassured fans, fueling hope that the show won’t be abruptly canceled after all.
The rumors about the show being canceled without a proper ending began several months ago. This happened when film critic Jeff Sneider mentioned on social media that some of the cast and crew were slowly moving away from the project due to other bigger commitments or jobs that would create scheduling conflicts. This sparked concern among fans of the series, which stars Zendaya and Jacob Elordi.
Despite these rumors, which took a while to clear up, Bloys assured that production is still on track. And that the scripts are ready to start filming in January 2025, as he shared with Variety. He also confirmed that season three will have eight episodes and will be very different from the previous seasons. The story will jump five years ahead, showing Rue as an adult dealing with new challenges after high school and the issues she was facing at the time.
