New details about Euphoria season 3 and its postponement has come up. The series was created by Sam Levinson, who also serves as the sole writer and director.
It focuses on the life of Rue, a young addict, and her group of troubled peers at the made-up East Highland High School in California. The much-awaited season 3 faced setbacks due to strikes by actors and writers in 2023. Recently, HBO put a pause on production as Levinson fine-tunes the script.
Following HBO’s statement, more information has come to light regarding the Euphoria season 3 being postponed. The Hollywood Reporter and The Wrap report that the upcoming season will pick up with the characters’ lives post-high school.
This narrative shift has led to complications in script development, prompting HBO to allow Levinson extra time to fully develop the plot, amidst increased dialogue and changes brought on by this new direction, as revealed by a source in conversation with The Wrap.
HBO has put the production of Euphoria season 3 on a temporary hiatus, allowing Sam Levinson to refine the scripts. Meanwhile, the sought-after cast members, including Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, and Colman Domingo, have been given the green light to take on new projects.
Although HBO hasn’t provided further specifics, recent reports suggest that the postponement stems from a significant shift in the narrative, transitioning from the high school backdrop.
The prospect of a time leap is expected, as the finale of Euphoria season 2 alluded to such a development. Back in April 2023, Heidi Bivens, the show’s costume designer, hinted at a potential five-year jump forward, beyond the high school years.
Zendaya, too, has shown enthusiasm for a storyline that delves into the characters’ post-high school existence. The latest delay implies that the narrative time jump may be more extensive than previously thought, propelling the characters squarely into their adult lives.
A time jump will age the characters, potentially decreasing the controversies surrounding the depiction of sex and substance use in the show. It’s clear that transitioning from a high school setting represents a considerable shift for Euphoria. Therefore, it’s reasonable that Levinson might need additional time to adapt to this evolution. Despite the delay, it is expected that Euphoria season 3 will be released in 2025.
