Euphoria Officially Ending With Season 3
Is Alexa Demie Retiring From Acting After Euphoria? She Says…
The harrowing saga of East Highland High School’s alumni has officially come to a close.
After Euphoria season three came to a bloody and heartbreaking end on May 31—with Zendaya’s Rue accidentally overdosing and dying on a Percocet laced with Fentanyl—show creator Sam Levinson confirmed the third installment is the HBO’s last.
“In terms of the story that we set out to tell,” Sam said during an appearance on the New York Times’ Popcast, “which is a story about addiction and its consequences, this feels like the end to me. Looking back, you know, on the last eight years, I think it was such a kind of fulfilling journey in terms of this cast, the crew, what we were able to accomplish.”
After all, as he noted, “There are thousands of things that have to go right in order to, to make something like this, and I’m just immensely proud of the work we did, the story we told, and you know, it’s a tragic one in the end, but it’s also, it’s the truth: If you are experimenting or taking drugs today, it’s very possible it’ll kill you.”
