Euphoria "Beyond Television"; Colman Domingo "Excited" for Season 3
During the 2026 Golden Globes, Colman Domingo shared that he's "excited" about Euphoria Season 3 and offered an insight into the production.
Article Summary
- Colman Domingo reveals he's "excited" for Euphoria Season 3 and praises Sam Levinson's bold direction.
- Domingo received only their own storyline scripts, making the filming experience more focused and insular.
- Season 3 begins five years later, with Rue in Mexico and Cassie and Nate engaged in the suburbs.
- Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, and other core cast members return for Euphoria's next chapter.
Heading into 2026, we learned that the third season of Sam Levinson's Zendaya-starring Euphoria would be returning to HBO/HBO Max in April. In addition, we were treated to a new image gallery spotlighting Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Hunter Schafer, Alexa Demie, and Maude Apatow. But what we haven't gotten is a lot of details on the season from the cast, and a large part of that has to due with them filming much of their work within their own storylines and not having a wide interaction with the cast. During the 2026 Golden Globes red carpet, Colman Domingo shared what he could about what he knows about the show's future.

In the clip below, Domingo shares how they were only given the script pages pertaining to his storylines, which he preferred because it made it easier for him to focus on his performance. That said, Domingo added that he would be doing some ADR recording shortly, so he expects to have a better idea of how the season is playing out. Overall, he's "excited" about what they've put together this season and praised Levinson for doing something "beyond television." Here's a look at what Domingo had to share about what he knows (and doesn't know) about the third season:
Checking in during HBO Max's London presentation last month, previewing what's on the horizon for 2026 and beyond, Levinson dropped some important intel regarding the third season. First up, fans can expect Season 3 to start hitting screens in April 2026. As for where things stand with everyone when the series resumes, Levinson dropped some clues about the time jump. "Five years felt like a natural place because if they'd gone to college, they'd be out of college at that time. We basically pick up Rue south of the border in Mexico, in debt to Laurie, trying to come up with some very innovative ways to pay it off," Levinson shared. "And then Cassie is living in the suburbs with Nate, they're engaged, and she's very addicted to social media and envious of what appears to be the big lives that all of her high school classmates are living at this point in time."
Levinson had high hopes for what viewers can expect, noting, "I feel strongly this is our best season yet… I will say that Cassie and Nate do, in fact, get married. I'm confirming it. And I promise that it will be an unforgettable night." Levinson also shared that Jules (Hunter Schafer) is in art school, Maddy (Alexa Demie) is working as a talent agent in Hollywood (with "side hustles"), and guest star Sharon Stone plays a showrunner who hires Lexi (Maude Apatow) as her assistant. Here's a look at a new image that was released earlier today.
