Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, And More Return For 'Euphoria' Season Three

“Euphoria” is finally coming back. HBO has released a second trailer for season three ahead of its April 12 return, with the new season premiering Sunday at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and HBO Max and rolling out weekly from there. Created, written, directed, and executive produced by Sam Levinson, with Zendaya returning at the center of the ensemble, the new season appears to push the show further out of high-school psychodrama and into something darker, more existential, and more openly adult. HBO’s official logline makes that shift pretty explicit: season three follows a group of childhood friends wrestling with faith, redemption, and the problem of evil. That wording alone suggests a series less interested in teenage spiral-for-spiral’s-sake than in what happens when adolescence gives way to consequences, damaged belief systems, and a much wider world. The returning regular cast includes Hunter Schafer, Eric Dane, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demie, Maude Apatow, Martha Kelly, Chloe Cherry, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, and Toby Wallace, with Colman Domingo, Nika King, and others also back. Season three also adds a huge wave of new guest stars, including Sharon Stone, Rosalía, Danielle Deadwyler, Marshawn Lynch, Asante Blackk, Natasha Lyonne, and Kadeem Hardison. There’s also a formal escalation behind the camera. Season three was shot on a new Kodak motion-picture stock in both 35mm and 65mm, making it the first narrative television series to shoot a significant volume on 65mm film. Levinson and cinematographer Marcell Rév reportedly worked closely with Kodak on the stock, giving the new season a tangible visual hook beyond the usual promise of going bigger.
