Internet’s favorite actress, Sydney Sweeney, known for her charismatic performances, has officially confirmed her return for the third season of HBO’s hit series, Euphoria. She unveiled the news in a chat with MTV’s Josh Horowitz on March 13, igniting a fresh wave of excitement among her fanbase.
Back to the Euphoria Set
Though Sweeney has been neck-deep in film projects like Anyone But You, Madame Web, and Immaculate, she isn’t taking a pause. Quite the opposite, she’s ready to plunge into her next cinematic voyage—Euphoria Season 3.
When probed for details on the new season, Sweeney played coy, further fueling the anticipation. She did share her excitement about reuniting with her Euphoria family, including co-stars Zendaya and Maude Apatow, after an absence of three years.
HBO Confirms Season 3 Timeline
While HBO has declared that the new season will grace the screens in 2025, the filming is slated to start this year. Euphoria enthusiasts have been enduring a three-year hiatus since Season 2, mostly because of the busy schedules of the show’s bustling cast.
Euphoria’s creator Sam Levinson is actively working on the script of Season 3, as revealed by HBO executive Casey Bloys. The upcoming season is shrouded in mystery, especially after significant changes like Barbie Ferrera’s exit and the unfortunate demise of Angus Cloud’s character.
Heidi Bivens, Euphoria’s costume designer, tempted the fans with the possibility of a five-year time jump in an interview with Vogue. The intriguing hint points to seeing characters Rue and Cassie navigate life post high-school.
Distancing from Madame Web
Amid the euphoria of Euphoria, Sweeney is diverting her focus from Sony’s Marvel movie, Madame Web. Released on Valentine’s Day, the movie didn’t quite ignite the box office, driving some of the cast, including Sweeney, to downplay their involvement.
In the movie, Sydney Sweeney portrayed Julia Carpenter, but seems less than thrilled with how the film panned out. Speaking with the Los Angeles Times, she humorously distanced herself from the project, maintaining her role was just that of an actress, along for the ride.
Likewise, in a stint on Saturday Night Live, Sydney stirred laughter by joking about the low visibility of the film. Madame Web struggled in ratings, garnering only 12% on Rotten Tomatoes and just managing to recover its $100 million budget.
So, to sum it up, despite the lukewarm response to Madame Web, Sydney Sweeney remains entrenched as one of Hollywood’s brightest stars. As she gears up for reprising her role in Euphoria Season 3, fans can rest assured there’s much more from the talented actress in store.
