Speculation about the future of Euphoria has been rife, with reports surfacing of a dispute between the show's key players, Zendaya and Sam Levinson. The last season of Euphoria aired in early 2022, and concerns have been raised about the return of the previously confirmed third season. Euphoria follows a group of teenagers navigating drugs, love, and relationships in high school. Season 2 received mixed reviews, with criticism ranging from excessive nudity to bizarre plotlines.
Allegations of a toxic work environment on set emerged, with reports of grueling workdays lasting up to 17 hours. Sam Levinson, the show's creator, faced backlash, especially after the failure of his next HBO show, The Idol, which was canceled after one season due to widespread criticism.
The delays in Euphoria Season 3 were partly attributed to the fallout from The Idol and a reported dispute between Sam and Zendaya. Zendaya, the Emmy-winning star and executive producer of Euphoria, expressed concerns over the delay and the uncertainty surrounding the show's future.
A meeting between Zendaya, Sam, and HBO executives failed to resolve their creative differences, leading to further delays. Reports suggested that Zendaya was displeased with Sam's focus on The Idol instead of Euphoria. However, recent developments indicate a potential reconciliation between Zendaya and Sam, with plans for Season 3 starting to take shape.
HBO confirmed that filming for Season 3 will commence in January 2025, with all main cast members returning. The network expressed excitement about the creative partnership with Sam and the cast, signaling a positive outlook for the upcoming season.
