"I am thrilled we are ready to begin production on Euphoria in January. We could not be happier with our creative partnership with Sam and this incredible cast. "We look forward to bringing this new season of Euphoria to life for the fans," said Francesca Orsi, executive vp HBO programming and head of HBO drama series and films, in a statement.
The first season of "Euphoria", which premiered in 2019, became a runaway hit. The second season was released in 2022 and renewed for a third chapter the same year. The update about the new season comes after years of delays and much speculation surrounding which cast members will return.

It is one of the most popular shows on HBO. The previous seasons also starred Alexa Demie, the late Angus Cloud, Barbie Ferreira and Maude Apatow.
Euphoria' boasts several movie stars, Zendaya, Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, and recurring player Colman Domingo who just received an Oscar nomination, with Storm Reid winning an Emmy earlier this year for The Last Of Us. Zendaya has won two Emmys for her portrayal of Rue in the series.
Between Seasons 2 and 3, the Euphoria family lost star Angus Cloud and producer Kevin Turen. The series is set in the fictional town of East Highland, California, who seek hope while balancing the strains of love, loss, and addiction. It is based on an Israeli show of the same name created by Ron Leshem and Daphna Levin. In the series, Zendaya plays the role of a teenage drug addict, who returned from rehab and struggles to live a sober life.
