The talk of TV this week has been the delay of “Euphoria” Season 3, and many questions about the HBO series abound.

Storm Reid is the first Euphoria cast member to speak out in response to the show’s third season delay.

Euphoria” has launched its young cast into superstardom and won multiple Emmys, while also being a magnet for controversy — but whatever lies ahead for the Sam Levinson-created show is going to have to wait. Earlier this week, HBO officially delayed the drama, which was set to begin production later this spring.

Marc Malkin Senior Editor, Culture and Events “Euphoria” star Storm Reid has acknowledged the recent news from HBO that filming of Season 3 on the Sam Levinson-created series has been put on hold, expressing optimism that the production will come together down the line. “I would hope the viewers, the audience will be able to finish the show,” Reid tells Variety, speaking Thursday at the opening of USC’s School of Dramatic Arts’ Drama Center in Los Angeles. “I think we should handle the show with care.

Earlier this week, HBO gave an update for “Euphoria” Season 3 amid rumors of the network axing Sam Levinson‘s hit series. And no, it’s not canceled, only delayed, so that Levinson may finish his script and accommodate a time jump between S2 and S3.

Sydney Sweeney has said she “doesn’t know” when Euphoria season three will start filming.Fans of the hit HBO series, which stars Zendaya, Jacob Elordi and Sweeney, have been awaiting a third instalment for more than two years, after its cliffhanger season two finale aired in February 2022.The third season suffered delays to filming and production as a result of last year’s acting and writing strikes, as well as creator Sam Levinson’s delay in completing the script.In a recent statement, HBO announced that the upcoming season is still on hold, and that its in-demand cast are free to explore other acting opportunities in the interim.Speaking exclusively to NME, Sweeney has now admitted that she doesn’t know when production will continue, despite previously hinting that she’s already read the season’s scripts.“Um, I don’t know how soon I’m going home [to Euphoria],” she said. “I’m just doing all the press for Immaculate right now and then we’ll see.”Sweeney, who plays Cassie in the series, is still busy promoting her nun horror movie, having kicked off the year with the hit rom-com Anyone But You.In a recent interview with GQ, fellow Euphoria star Colman Domingo opened up about the possible reasons behind the third season’s delay.[Sam is] a person who writes and rewrites and writes and rewrites again, because I think he’s wrestling with what’s important.“He’s responding immediately to what the ills of the world are.

an HBO spokesperson told Variety. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.” Several “Euphoria” cast members are now a part of Hollywood’s latest class of A-listers — Zendaya is fresh off the success of “Dune: Part Two,” Jacob Elordi’s star catapulted for his roles in “Saltburn” and “Priscilla,” and Sydney Sweeney recently starred in the blockbuster rom-com “Anyone but You” and the horror film “Immaculate.” Since “Euphoria” takes place in a high school, there are many rumors that the show may jump ahead in time and age up the characters to be college-aged.

Yesterday, “Euphoria” fans received bad news. Following reports that season three of the hit HBO series was scrapped, spokespeople for the cable channel nearly admitted as much, reaffirmed their commitment to making it, but conceded the show was being delayed again.

Euphoria doesn’t seem to be arriving on screens anytime soon, following multiple delays.Fans of the hit HBO series, which stars Zendaya, Jacob Elordi and Sydney Sweeney, have been awaiting a third instalment for more than two years, after its cliffhanger season two finale aired in February 2022.The third season suffered delays to filming and production as a result of last year’s acting and writing strikes, as well as creator Sam Levinson’s delay in completing the script.A statement made by the network (as per Deadline) revealed: “HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season. In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”Elordi, who plays the toxic lead male character, Nate Jacobs, received acclaim for his recent feature films, dark comedy thriller, Saltburn and memoir-adapted biopic Priscilla, in which he portrayed Elvis Presley.Meanwhile Sweeney, who plays divisive and naïve Cassie, has been promoting her latest project, horror movie, Immaculate, after kicking off the year with romcom, Anyone But You.Zendaya, who has earned Emmy awards for her portrayal of the show’s central role, Rue, a troubled teenage drug addict, has been celebrating the success of Dune: Part Two, and will soon be promoting upcoming romantic sports film, Challengers.Also recognised for his performance in Euphoria is Colman Domingo, who received the award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama in 2022, for his portrayal of recovering drug addict Ali.

The third season of Euphoria was set to begin filming this spring, but HBO has announced that the season is officially being delayed even further.

A flagship show with nine Emmy wins to date from 25 nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series in 2022, HBO has been desperate for more of their critically acclaimed hit “Euphoria.” However, as showrunner Sam Levinson has taken detours (like 2023’s poorly received and canceled “The Idol”), the much-anticipated series was pushed to 2025. Now, amid new rumors that the third season would be scrapped entirely, HBO tells Variety that the series is still in the works and the show is still alive; however, its shooting schedule has been delayed again.

With creator Sam Levinson still working on scripts for the upcoming third season of HBO’s Euphoria, filming plans have been temporarily put on hold, with the cast given permission to take other acting jobs in the interim.
