Euphoria season 3 is officially underway, and the makers have started to reveal details about the cast. The teen drama series will reportedly feature some new faces, while most actors will reprise their roles from the first two seasons.

The series, based on the Israeli drama series of the same name by Ron Lesham and Daphna Levin, has been executive produced by Drake, along with manager Future the Prince. It premiered on June 16, 2019, and almost immediately became a global sensation for its gripping storytelling, stellar cast, and masterful handling of sensitive topics.

The first two seasons featured an ensemble cast that included Zendaya, Eric Dane, Maude Apatow, Alexa Demie, Angus Cloud, Barbie Ferreira, Jacob Elordi, Nika King, Storm Reid, Hunter Schafer, Algee Smith, and Sydney Sweeney.

Returning cast members of Euphoria season 3

After a long break, Euphoria season 3 is officially under production and is set to be released in 2026, four years after the release of the second season. According to reports, the third season will have eight episodes and feature a time jump of several years. This means that the already established characters will be out of high school in the story.

This has created speculation about the cast, as a time jump would mean that the absence of characters could be justified in the narrative. As per Deadline, the singer and actor Zendaya, who is the lead star of the show, will be returning for Euphoria season 3.

Besides her, other returning cast members include Hunter Schafer, Eric Dane, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demie, and Maude Apatow will also return as the series regulars. This means that almost all the main cast of the show will be returning for the next season.

Colman Domingo will be back as a guest star as well. Unfortunately, one of the key members of the cast Angus Cloud passed away on July 31, 2023. There is no official update about the fate of his character in season 3 as of yet.
