Euphoria Season 3: Release window, cast, plot details – Everything we known so far
HBO's Euphoria has fans buzzing with anticipation for its third season. The show's gritty take on love, addiction, and growing up has made it a cultural phenomenon. After delays and heartbreak, Season 3 is finally coming together. Here's everything known about the release window, cast, and plot. Release Window: When Will Euphoria Season 3 Premiere?
Waiting for Euphoria Season 3 has tested everyone's patience. HBO initially hinted at a 2025 release, but Warner Bros. Discovery's streaming boss, JB Perrette, confirmed in December 2024 that it's now slated for 2026. Filming started in February 2025 in Los Angeles, with HBO dropping a teaser image of Zendaya as Rue, looking pensive in a dimly lit setting. Based on typical production timelines, expect a premiere in mid-to-late 2026 on HBO and Max in the U.S., or Sky Atlantic and Now for UK fans. Who's in the Euphoria Season 3 Cast?
The Euphoria Season 3 cast is a mix of beloved regulars and exciting new faces, though some absences will sting. Here's who's in: Zendaya (Rue Bennett): The show's soul, Rue will keep grappling with her demons and relationships.
Hunter Schafer (Jules Vaughn): Jules is back, with her and Rue's complicated bond likely front and center.
Sydney Sweeney (Cassie Howard): Sweeney's pumped to return, teasing a wild ride for Cassie.
Jacob Elordi (Nate Jacobs): Nate's toxic edge will persist, possibly tied to a wedding teased in set photos.
Maude Apatow (Lexi Howard): Lexi's quiet strength and creative spark will shine, maybe alongside Fez.
Alexa Demie (Maddy Perez): Maddy's fierce vibe is non-negotiable.
Eric Dane (Cal Jacobs): Dane's hinted at a redemption arc for Cal, who's locked up post-Season 2.
Colman Domingo (Ali Mohammed): Rue's wise NA sponsor will keep guiding her.
Dominic Fike (Elliot): Elliot's messy dynamic with Rue and Jules is set to evolve. What's the Plot of Euphoria Season 3?
Sam Levinson's keeping the plot under lock and key, but nuggets from interviews and set leaks paint a picture. Season 3 will feel like a 'film noir,' exploring morality in a messy world, per Levinson. A five-year time jump, confirmed by costume designer Heidi Bivens, takes the characters out of high school, letting them navigate adulthood's challenges. Story Hints to Expect
Rue's Path: Zendaya's passionate about giving Rue's arc closure, focusing on her sobriety and ties with Jules. Their relationship, rocked by betrayals and relapses, will likely drive emotional stakes.
Cassie and Nate Drama: A set photo shared by @euphoriacentral on X shows Cassie in a wedding dress with 'C&N' initials, sparking buzz about a Nate-Cassie wedding. Could be real, could be a dream— Euphoria loves a twist.
Lexi and Fez: Maude Apatow's rooting for Lexi and Fez to reconnect, though his post-shootout fate (jail? freedom?) is unclear.
Cal's Comeback: Eric Dane's teased Cal seeking redemption from behind bars, which could tie into the noir theme.
New Vibes: The time jump and new cast suggest fresh rivalries and alliances. Levinson's vision might dig into societal flaws or personal struggles, keeping the show's raw edge.

Dominic Fike Trolled Sabrina Carpenter at Lollapalooza With ‘The Hate U Give' Clip
This year's Lollapalooza has come and gone, but Dominic Fike and Sabrina Carpenter are still a hot topic after they performed at the beloved Chicago-based music fest. Both artists took over the T-Mobile stage on Sunday, August 3, with the '3 Nights' musician scheduled right before Sabrina's headlining set. Ahead of her record-breaking performance, Dominic played a video of the multihyphenate from The Hate U Give. In the scene, her character, Hailey, makes a racially insensitive statement toward Amandla Stenberg's character, Starr. 'Starr, just pretend the ball is fried chicken,' she said in the clip, where tension heightened during a basketball game. In character, she walked back on her comment, saying, 'It's game talk.' Fans in the crowd erupted in cheers as soon as the 'Manchild' hitmaker's face came on screen, and following the quick clip came another video of Dominic. He jokingly said, 'I'm in the fucking game, bro, it's a game,' to clarify that he was running a bit. However, the comments section of a fan-posted video drew mixed reactions. 'Now she needs to play a clip from Euphoria lol,' one fan wrote, referring to his stint on the second season of the HBO series. Another added, 'Sabrina's fans crying in comments like it wasn't funny.' The Sabrina fans in question chimed in, saying, 'She's acting… in a movie... who does he think cares?' and 'Now why would he do this?' During The Hate U Give's theatrical release in 2018, Sabrina revealed what drew her to the project, which is based on Angie Thomas's novel of the same name. At the time, she told Hero magazine, 'I wanted to be a part of it in any way that I could, and I do know that it's such an important film for so many people.' As for her role as Hailey, Sabrina knew it would spark some controversy, adding, 'For my character specifically, the reason that this character exists – who is ignorant and doesn't recognise her privilege – she exists because there are people in the world like her. That's one of the reasons we really hope that people watch it.' During her interview for Cosmopolitan's 'The Breakdown' video series, Sabrina doubled down on that sentiment. 'I unfortunately played everyone's least favorite character,' she said, adding, 'It's one of the most incredible films I've ever gotten the chance to work on, so that was really special.' The artists—who each have songs titled 'Mona Lisa'—have yet to comment on the situation, if at all. After Dominic performed tracks like 'Babydoll' and debuted a new song, 'All Hands on Deck,' Sabrina closed out Lolla with an iconic headlining set featuring Chicago natives, Earth, Wind and Fire.

Roku's new Howdy service offers ad-free streaming for $3 per month
Roku just revealed a new ad-free streaming service called Howdy . The service costs $3 per month, making it an enticing prospect for budget-conscious viewers. The company says this isn't an introductory price and should be permanent. Howdy will stream a whole bunch of content, but it's mostly pre-existing movies and shows. The company has inked deals with Warner Bros. Discovery, Lionsgate and other providers, so the platform will host movies like Elvis and Mad Max: Fury Road and shows like Weeds and Party Down . It'll also be home to Roku Originals, like the stellar Weird Al "biopic." Company founder and CEO Anthony Wood spoke to Deadline and called Howdy "a response to the reality that many consumers are interested in a service that is ad-free and low-cost." He may be right. Consumers are likely to flock to something that's $3 a month, especially when the other streamers keep raising prices and stuffing ads everywhere . This isn't Roku's only recent foray into the world of paid streaming, after years of relying on free, ad-supported television (FAST) channels. The company acquired the service Frdnly , which streams live TV from a number of noteworthy cable channels. Prices for this platform range from $7 to $10 per month. Howdy will be available later today on Roku devices. The company promises a "rollout on mobile and additional platforms in the near future."
