Euphoria's Season 3 Mystery: Is a Zendaya-Sam Levinson Feud Delaying Production?
Euphoria's second season blew us away, right? The drama, the crazy storylines, it was pretty intense. Now, everyone is freaking out, wondering why Season 3 hasn't dropped yet, with fans already dying to see more. So much hype, but so little new information!
We hear from insiders and industry gossip sites that some drama between Zendaya and showrunner Sam Levinson may be holding everything up. Honestly, the dude, who makes some wild content, is probably doing his best to come up with new plots. And everyone's guessing! Did those rumors about a Zendaya feud actually hurt Season 3, or are they just taking their time?
Wait... A Feud?!
Everyone's really looking at this new project Levinson's done, called The Idol, like some big signal that all that buzz is true! Apparently, there was a plan to work on Euphoria season 3, and Zendaya even wanted to direct! But it all changed when he dived into The Idol, with Zendaya calling him out because of that big change of plans.
To be fair, there could be a thousand different reasons for a season Delay. You know, rewriting the script, making sure the budget is right... It could even be those big actors' strikes! It all just feels like a big mess at this point. So no one is sure what's really happening!
So What Can We Expect From Season 3?
Okay, let's move beyond the gossip for a minute. Even if things are messy, there's no doubt that HBO is still looking for more Euphoria. They want those dramatic, emotional, and totally captivating stories, right? So Season 3 is totally on their schedule, with filming likely happening next year.
It looks like everyone is going to come back! Zendaya's a big name now, she'll be starring for sure. Even Dominic Fike confirmed he'd be returning, saying, “Absolutely!" And Sydnie Sweeney, while not officially confirmed yet, has a whole bunch of reasons to want to keep playing Cassie! It's great news, though still far from knowing exactly what we're getting in the upcoming season!
What Would We Even See in Euphoria Season 3?
Think about where Euphoria ended in season 2: Maddy, Cassie, Rue... those storylines were just getting insane. With those high school kids having major feelings about love, betrayal, drugs, and pretty much everything else, season 3 might be even wilder than we can imagine.
Maybe Rue’s going to sober up, and maybe she won’t. And if that Zendaya gossip’s true, she’ll probably have her hands full figuring out the direction of the show since she'll be directing it now too, which is pretty exciting! Whatever the chaos in those storylines is going to look like, fans can't help but imagine a new kind of intense Euphoria season, so we'll have to be ready!
Hold Up... Can’t They All Just Get Along?
Let’s not forget that The Idol was just…well, kinda awful! All that criticism and bad press isn’t doing anyone any favors. Maybe the gossip about those Zendaya and Levinson issues is more than just rumours. Could this affect the new season? Well, I guess only time will tell.
All those behind-the-scenes rumors aside, the last bit of insider gossip says things got even worse when they tried to smooth things over, with an insider reporting that they went “from being so close… they couldn’t fix it.” Oof. This sounds a lot like one of those messed-up storylines from the actual show, but honestly, nobody's spilling the tea - and only time will tell how all of this drama affects Euphoria. But let's hope they figure things out, and give us that drama that we know we need and love!
