Jacob Elordi Praises Euphoria Season 3 Ahead of 2026 Release

Jacob Elordi describes working on Season 3 of HBO's "Euphoria" as incredibly liberating, highlighting that he plays a character far from his previous roles and praising series creator Sam Levinson's clever and cinematic storytelling. Despite his involvement, Elordi reveals he only knows his own storyline and not the broader plot, comparing the experience to consuming the show as a fan for the first time. Season 3, which faces a long delay due to cast and crew strikes, as well as the deaths of key contributors, will include both returning cast members like Zendaya and new additions such as Trisha Paytas and Natasha Lyonne. Elordi clarified misinformation about the season being shot entirely in VistaVision, confirming instead that it uses various film formats. The show continues to explore complex themes surrounding high school students dealing with addiction, identity, and social challenges. With its critical acclaim evidenced by 25 Emmy nominations and 9 wins in the first two seasons, anticipation remains high for the upcoming season's release next spring.
