Hunter Schaferhas mixed feelings about the prospect of returning to make Season 3 ofEuphoria.
As I’m sure you know, Hunter got her big break playing Jules on HBO’sEuphoria, starring alongside the likes ofZendaya,Jacob Elordi,Sydney Sweeney, and Alexa Demie.
Season 2 ofEuphoriaaired in early 2022, and despite its immense popularity, it’s been unclear for a while whether or not the show will ever return for itspreviously confirmedthird season.
Fromalleged feudsand strike delays totragic deathsand allegations of a “toxic” environment on set, a lot has happened to bring the show’s future into question repeatedly.
And, as the core cast members’ careers havecontinued to flourishaway from the beloved high school drama,Euphoria’s creator, Sam Levinson, has only found himself at the center ofmore controversy.
Most notably, in July 2023, the show’s cast and crew were rocked by the sudden death ofAngus Cloud, who played the beloved character Fezco.
Now, speaking on the latest episode of theCall Her Daddypodcast, Hunter got seriously emotional while discussing the future ofEuphoriafollowing Angus’s death.
“Here’s the real tea. A lot has happened… It’s hard to talk about,” she said when host Alex Cooper asked about the status of Season 3. “We’ve had deaths… I’m going to get emotional,” she said, struggling to hold back her tears.
Angus’s death was not the only loss for theEuphoriacast and crew. In November 2023,Kevin Turen, who produced the show alongside Sam, died suddenly from multiple heart issues.
“Obviously, I’m still coming to qualms with what’s happened — losing people that we really loved and were a part of this family,” Hunter said, referring to Angus and Kevin. “If we do go back, that’s going to be tough.”
Sam and Zendayaare now apparently healing their relationship and working together to develop new ideas forEuphoria’s future. In July,HBO confirmedthat Season 3 will start production in January 2025 — although whether that actually happens remains to be seen.
