Hans Zimmer joins ‘Euphoria' Season 3 as composer alongside Labrinth
Acclaimed composer Hans Zimmer has officially joined the music team for Euphoria Season 3, HBO confirmed this week. Zimmer will work alongside returning composer and producer Labrinth, marking a significant shift in the show's already influential sonic identity. Zimmer, known for his powerful film scores in Interstellar, Dune, and The Lion King, said in a statement, 'It's an honor to join this incredible team of storytellers led by the visionary Sam Levinson. Labrinth's music has shaped the show's identity, and I'm looking forward to contributing to the ongoing story and helping shape this new season through music.' Labrinth, whose genre-defying compositions have been central to the show's tone since its debut, welcomed the collaboration. 'Another chapter in the Euphoria universe! So great to join Hans, one of my heroes in film score, and bring some new magic to this new season,' he said. Series creator Sam Levinson, who remains at the helm for Season 3, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration. 'It's a true honour to be working alongside Hans,' Levinson said. 'I wrote this season to the score of Interstellar and True Romance, so he's been ingrained in the creative DNA since the beginning.' Production on Season 3 began earlier this year after multiple delays. Much of the original cast, including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Hunter Schafer, and Jacob Elordi, is set to return. New cast members include Sharon Stone, singer Rosalía, and former NFL player Marshawn Lynch, among others. Euphoria is expected to return in 2026.
