Zendaya hints that Euphoria will come to an end after season three
Euphoria actress Zendaya has suggested that the HBO series will come to an end at the conclusion of its long-awaited third season.
Zendaya has indicated that Euphoria will come to an end after the forthcoming third season.
The acclaimed HBO series will return to screens this weekend after a four-year hiatus and the 29-year-old actress, who portrays the troubled Rue Bennett in the series, has suggested that it will bring the show to its conclusion.
Quizzed on The Drew Barrymore Show if season three spells the end for Euphoria, Zendaya said: "I think so, yeah."
When Barrymore asked the question again, The Drama actress replied: "Yes, I think so."
Zendaya added: "Rue taught me so much about life... that crew has also seen me grow up. I owe so much to that show. Rue taught me so much about empathy and about redemption. She taught me a lot, and I'm very grateful for all of it."
The eight-episode third series of Euphoria begins on Sunday (12.04.26), with the four-year delay partly caused by creator Sam Levinson's decision to jump the ensemble cast – which also includes Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi and Maude Apatow – forward five years so they are out of high school and into adult life.
Zendaya previously described how filming season three of Euphoria felt like "trying to get eight episodes in at once" because of her packed schedule – as she has roles in movies The Odyssey, Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Dune: Part Three all still to come this year.
Asked what fans can expect from the new season, she told Variety: "I've seen a little bit, but gosh, it was a whirlwind.
"I did what I do in eight months in like four months, so I was just like - it was like trying to get eight episodes in at once.
"It just flew by for me! But I'm excited, I hope it turns out beautifully."
Zendaya recently suggested that she is planning to "go into hiding" this year as she fears the public will get "sick" of seeing her because of the sheer number of projects she has coming out.
She told Fandango: "I just hope people don’t get sick of me, and I really appreciate everyone who supports any of the movies [and] supports my career in any kind of way.
"I’m deeply appreciative.
"I just hope you guys don’t get sick of me this year because I’ll tell you what - I’m disappearing for a little bit.
"I’m going to have to go into hiding for just a little bit."
