Euphoria Season 3 is all set to return on HBO after four long years. The teen drama television series was created and written by Sam Levinson. It is based on the Israeli miniseries of the same name created by Ron Leshem and Daphna Levin. The show, which launched and led, Zendaya to superstardom alongside castmates, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi and Hunter Schafer, will return to TV screens on Sunday, April 12, 2026, for its much-anticipated third season.
The latest instalment of the Emmy-winning series comes after the show reportedly faced a number of production delays, including the 2023 Hollywood actors and screenwriters strikes. In March 2024, HBO announced that it was permitting the series’ cast to pursue other acting jobs amid the long wait for Season 3. And now, after the long wait, the show is finally returning. As fans wait for the show to premiere, let’s see what critics are saying about the upcoming series.
What do we know about Euphoria’s return with Season 3?
Euphoria Season 3 is set five years after the events of Season 2, offering a more grown-up look, depicting its cast of eccentric characters as 20-somethings. Zendaya’s character, ‘Rue’, will be seen working as an indentured servant for drug dealer ‘Laurie’, played by Martha Kelly, while ‘Cassie’, played by Sydney Sweeney, and ‘Nate’, Jacob Elordi, navigate serious coupledom during their engagement. Euphoria became a TV darling and pop cultural lightning rod given its candid take on adolescent life, including its graphic portrayals of sexuality and drug use. Season 3 will further explore the lives of our beloved leads, bringing new twists and drama to the show.
