On the pair of series Euphoria (2019 -) and The Idol (2023), sex scenes are so plentiful and incendiary that they tend to eclipse the central plot. Both have featured erotic asphyxiation practices in memorable scenes. Euphoria's two seasons, soon to be joined by a third, have turned it into a contemporary reference point, one that has come to characterize an entire generation of teens and brought us such undeniable rising stars as Zendaya and Jacob Elordi.

A rock could technically be nicer than Nate Jacobs was in for the past two seasons. Still, Jacob Elordi promises there have been some positive changes to Nate with the time jump for the upcoming season. Gwyneth Paltrow asked Elordi on Actors on Actors if his character was "nicer" than in previous seasons, as she became a fan after her kids recommended it to her. He gave us a little hope for Nate's character development.

It looks like Euphoria season three is getting a cast upgrade as internet icon, Trisha Paytas, has seemingly joined the next season of the hit HBO show. The Zendaya-led series has reportedly wrapped shooting for the long-delayed season. Updates have been coming through here and there but we still remain light on details. So, trust Paytas to whip up a frenzy. During the latest episode of her podcast Just Trish, Paytas and Oscar Gracey were discussing Benito Skinner/Benny Drama, also of Internet fame as well as Overcompensating.

The announcement immediately reignited discussion among the show's passionate audience. Euphoria is more than just a television series - it has become a touchstone for Gen Z, celebrated for its unflinching portrayal of addiction, identity, and adolescence, as well as its groundbreaking cinematography and fashion-forward styling. Its return promises to once again dominate social media conversations, spawn think pieces, and set the tone for television storytelling in 2026.

Asked in 2024 whether she would be interested in playing the role, Schafer told Entertainment Tonight that the idea would be "so cool," adding that she was a huge fan of the series growing up. "I've seen another wave of the fan cast and everything, which is just really sweet," she said at the time. "I'm honoured that they even think of me for that."

Domingo praises Euphoria star Zendaya, citing her openness as a scene partner. He mentions, 'It's funny, because we're doing some work now on season 3. And it's just easy. It's very easy to listen and respond to her.'
