Euphoria Actor Doubts Season 3 Will Ever Happen

The actor expressed intense skepticism that the show will continue, despite HBO confirming a 2025 expected release date for Season 3: “I just don’t think it will happen.”

The set of the teen drama, which follows the sex- and drugs-infused lives of students at a California high school, has certainly had its fair share of controversy—from the The Daily Beast reporting of on-set spats and accusations from background actors that the production was a toxic environment, to show creator Sam Levinson being of stealing ideas from a female filmmaker. What’s more, the actor doesn’t believe that HBO’s announcement this week that the show’s third season will return in 2025 is likely to happen—even though pushing it beyond next year would would mean the main cast (including huge stars like Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney and Jacob Elordi) would be released from their contracts and therefore able to renegotiate salaries. Meanwhile, industry insider Matt Belloni predicted on Monday’s episode of his podcast, The Town, that some form of a third season “will happen” despite the fact that Levinson is “kind of a disaster” coming off of HBO’s short-lived and widely panned The Idol.
