Euphoria Season 3: Sweeney "Very Excited to Jump Back Into Cassie"

HBO's Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney on returning to film Season 3 in January 2025 and how she's "very excited to jump back into Cassie."

We're looking at four months until production on the third season of Sam Levinson's Zendaya and Hunter Schafer-starring Euphoria is set to get underway, with main cast members expected to return (Zendaya, Schafer, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Alexa Demie, Maude Apatow, and others). The news came amidst rumblings of issues going on behind the scenes – but now, it looks like a schedule is in place and (fingers crossed) a light at the end of that really long metaphorical tunnel. Speaking with PEOPLE while promoting her partnership with show brand HEYDUDE, Sweeney (Cassie) shared how she's feeling about returning to set as time nears.

"I'm very excited to jump back into Cassie. She is definitely one of the most special characters for me, and I love my 'Euphoria' family, so I look forward to it," Sweeney shared. As for what she would like to see for her character during the new season, Sweeney adds that whatever it is, she hopes it dials up the "crazy Cassie" factor. "I love crazy Cassie, so the crazier, the better for me," she said. As for any specifics she might have on Season 3, Sweeney is either in the same place that Schafer shared she was in last month (more on that below) when it comes to details or looking to lay low to avoid spoilers (like news of the time jump): "Honestly, I don't know anything about it."

Last month, Schafer revealed on the Call Her Daddy podcast that she had "no fucking idea what's going on" with the third season. "You can ask literally all of the cast. The real tea is that a lot has happened," Schafer added. In terms of the show, the cast and creative team were hit with two tragic losses between seasons – co-star Angus Cloud and producer Kevin Turen. "I think everyone feels a certain sense of anticipation for if we are supposed to do Season 3. Obviously, I'm still coming to qualms about what's happened and losing people that we really loved and were a part of this family and everything. If we do go back, that's going to be tough," she explained. "I think there's a world in which we can channel that into making it a beautiful Season 3 — if it is supposed to happen, but I think that shit really threw everyone for a loop."
