Studying Time: 2 minutes
Placing “Sydney Sweeney” and “OnlyFans” in the identical sentence is a surefire method to fire up curiosity on social media.
And Euphoria showrunner Sam Levinson may need had that in thoughts when he got here up Sydney’s storyline for the present’s third season.
Sure, the primary trailer for Euphoria Season 3 dropped at present, and evidently Sydney’s character, Cassie, is now engaged to Nate Jacobs and creating grownup content material for a dwelling.
Cassie appears to have discovered a really particular area of interest, as the 2 scenes that present her posing for the digital camera additionally present her dressed as a canine.
At one level, she fairly actually shakes her tail, a second that’s positive to be closely GIF-ed within the weeks to return.
There was a time when a 3rd season of Euphoria appeared unlikely, regardless of the present’s recognition.
In any case, a number of members of the present’s solid — together with Sydney and her onscreen fiancé, Jacob Elordi — have gone on to turn into main stars, and there have been considerations that they won’t wish to return to the small-screen highschool that made them well-known.
And the final season, aired again in 2022, that means that the solid — most of him at the moment are approaching 30 — could be considerably much less plausible as highschool college students, presenting producers with a Stranger Issues-esque dilemma.
Effectively, we’d by no means understand how Levinson solved the primary drawback, however he got here up with a intelligent workaround for the second:
In response to a voice-over from Zendaya’s Rue, the narrative picks up “a number of years” after highschool.
Nate is working building, Rue remains to be combined up on the earth of onerous medication (though she seems to be clinging to sobriety), Maddie is stripping, Jules is a “sugar child,” and Cassie, after all, is creating furry content material.
Evidently, issues haven’t labored out as deliberate for the telegenic graduates of East Highland Excessive College.
However the time soar will undercut one main criticism of the present — specifically that the storylines involving large-scale drug smuggling and worldwide crime syndicates have been beginning to appear ridiculous within the context of a present about suburban excessive schoolers.
Zendaya stays the ethical and narrative middle of the present, however Sydney has turn into arguably essentially the most well-known actress on the planet for the reason that days Euphoria Season 2, so count on a lot of this week’s trailer discourse to revolve round Cassie.
Sadly, the trailer serves to remind us that one of many present’s breakout stars, Angus Cloud, handed away in 2023.
Barbie Ferreira may also not be returning, having reportedly clashed with Levinson on set.
Euphoria Season 3 will debut on HBO and HBO Max on April 12.
