Waiting game: "Euphoria" fans brace for 2026 comeback
What's next for "Euphoria"? Fans of the series are eagerly anticipating the premiere of the next season, much like awaiting the first star on Christmas Eve. Behind closed doors, producers are working hard to meet the expectations of viewers invested in the tale of these rebellious teenagers.
There's nothing more exciting for a TV show fan than waiting for the premiere of the next season of a beloved series. It's a time filled with emotions, speculations, and the nervous countdown until favorite characters return to the screen. Every trailer, leaked tidbit, or photo from the set serves as a small ray of hope, further fueling anticipation for what's to come.
However, this anticipation has its downsides. Long breaks between seasons can be frustrating, and concerns about the direction of the plot can keep fans up at night. In the age of streaming, where many have become accustomed to binge-watching entire seasons, the need to patiently wait for new episodes hearkens back to the days of classic television. Yet, this very thrill of waiting, hoping, and uncertainty is what makes TV premieres special.
When will "Euphoria" return?
According to sources from "Rolling Stone," production on the third season of "Euphoria" is set to begin in January 2025. On set, Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Maude Apatow, Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demie, and Jacob Elordi will reunite. However, Barbie Ferreira will not return due to her falling-out with the show's producers in 2022. In July, HBO executive Francesca Orsi stated in an interview with "The Hollywood Reporter": "I am thrilled that we are ready to begin production on Euphoria in January. We could not be happier with our creative partnership with Sam and this incredible cast. We look forward to bringing this new season of Euphoria to life for the fans."
According to unofficial reports, the premiere of the third season of the HBO production may occur in 2026, although a specific date has yet to be announced.
