Emmy-winning actress Zendaya is returning with another season of HBO Max's Euphoria, and it's as wild as it can get.

An American adaptation of the Israeli series Euphoria is created by Sam Levinson, with Drake as one of its producers. The series revolves around a group of high-school students as they navigate the trials and tribulations of being a teenager.

Euphoria is an exploration of love, identity, drugs, s*x, and everything there is in today's world, making it somewhat an accurate representation of teenagers today.

The teaser revealed a new character along with the returning cast and the troubles that are coming Rue's way, making it very Euphoria-like.

The clip begins with Rue happily singing along to the classic song Call Me Irresponsible before things take a dark turn as viewers hear her voiceover:

"When you're younger, everything feels so permanent. But as you get older, you begin to realize nothing is. And everyone you love can drift away."
