Euphoria Creator Sam Levinson Reflects on Season 3 Challenges
When asked about the challenges of making Euphoria Season 3, one stuck out for series creator Sam Levinson: losing Angus Cloud to an overdose in 2023. Losing Angus was really hard for us as a production. I loved him very deeply, an emotional Levinson told Variety at Tuesday night’s Euphoria Season 3 premiere in Hollywood.
Levinson also discussed directing Eric Dane, who plays Cal Jacobs, a complex character in the show. Levinson praised Dane’s performance, saying he brought a level of depth and nuance to the role. However, when asked about plans for Season 4, Levinson revealed that there are currently no plans to continue the series beyond its third season.
The Impact of Angus Cloud’s Passing
Angus Cloud’s passing was a devastating blow to the Euphoria cast and crew. Cloud played the role of Fezco, a fan favorite, and his presence will be deeply missed in future seasons. Levinson’s emotional response to Cloud’s passing is a testament to the strong bond between the cast and crew.
Despite the challenges, Levinson is proud of what the team has accomplished with Season 3. The new season promises to be just as intense and thought-provoking as the previous ones, with complex characters and storylines that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
What’s Next for Euphoria?
While there are no plans for Season 4, Levinson is focused on making Season 3 the best it can be. With its talented cast, including Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, and Jacob Elordi, Euphoria is sure to continue its success. Fans can expect more of the same drama, romance, and social commentary that has made the show a hit.
