Euphoria Season 3: Release Date and Story What We Know So Far About HBO Max Series
Euphoria Season 3: Last Sunday night the last episode of the Euphoria Season 2 premiered, becoming the most watched episode of the entire series, with nearly 6.6 million viewers. And it is not for less, the show has become one of the most successful of HBO. In fact, Euphoria is the second most watched production on the TV network, after Game Of Thrones. The eighth and final chapter of Euphoria season 2 was high-impact, but it left many questions that can only be resolved in the third season. What is known so far? We tell you all the details below.
Euphoria Season 3 Release Date?
As many feared, it will take a long time for the premiere of the third season of Euphoria. In the last few hours, various media outlets have reported that the series will only return in 2024, so it will take two years to find out what happens to the characters. About the plot there is not much information, but some conclusions can be drawn considering the events of the last chapter.
Rue was last heard from sober for the entire school year, estranged from Jules and Elliot , and resumed her friendship with Lexi. Her finale was the most positive of all, but things could go downhill again in the third season of Euphoria. It should be remembered that the protagonist owes a huge debt to Laurie, who promised her hell if she didn’t keep her promise. Apparently, Rue has not heard from the drug dealer in recent months and that story will most likely be picked up in the third season.
As for Fezco there is not much information. It is known that he is injured, that his brother De he Ashtray is -apparently- dead and that he will probably have to face justice for the death of Mouse and Custer. Things are not looking good for him and at the moment everything indicates that things will be very different from how he experienced them in the first two seasons. For the first time he will be seen vulnerable and with his arms crossed.
The affair between Nate, Cassie and Maddy is sure to continue. The latter warned the older sister Howard that “this is just the beginning”, probably emphasizing how torturous it is to have a relationship with Cal’s son. However, Maddy could move away from her imbroglio and focus on herself. She already saw a couple of chapters ago that she intended to leave the city.
Why Do We Have To Wait So Long For Euphoria Season 3?
The first season of Euphoria premiered in 2019 and just a month after its debut, the second installment was confirmed. The fans were expectant, but they never imagined that they would have to wait so long for new chapters. The first script reading for the second season was held in early March 2020, and production was expected to begin during the second quarter of the same year. However, it was delayed indefinitely due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
To keep the public attentive, in September 2020 it was decided to record the special episodes of Rue and Jules, which were released in December 2020 and January 2021 , respectively. And it was only in April 2021 that the filming of the second season began, whose premiere occurred at the beginning of this year. Estop means that between the first and second season of the series there was a wait of 2 and a half years.
Taking into account that many film and TV productions have resumed their recordings, despite the health emergency, Euphoria was expected to take much less time to premiere its new season. But everything indicates that history will repeat itself and there are some reasons why we will apparently have to wait so long for the third season of Euphoria, which are not related to the pandemic.
Clearly the coronavirus is a factor that cannot be ruled out. But it should also be considered that Euphoria is not a series like the others. The way the HBO production is shot is unusual, with unusual shots, angles and transitions, which extends the shooting process. The actors themselves have confirmed that a fairly short scene can take several hours to shoot.
Also, we must take into account the tight schedule of the cast, which since its appearance in Euphoria has gained greater recognition and therefore have won new roles in other productions. So, it is not difficult to think that it is complex to match the agenda of the actors and actresses.
Only the protagonist of the series has several projects on the table. Zendaya is expected to star in four new movies (Challengers, Dune: Part 2, A White Lie, and Be My Baby). That without counting the projects that have not yet come to light.
