After Euphoria made her a recognizable face in Hollywood, Sydney Sweeney’s subsequent efforts in the award winning The White Lotus and the romantic comedy Anyone But You have proved that she is well on her way to becoming a superstar. Apart from her obvious talent, it is Sweeney’s smoldering looks and s*xy appearance that have been major talking points.

The actor has also performed her share of intimate and n*de scenes, but has always maintained that she would only agree to do so if her character demanded it. In her latest film, Immaculate, director Michael Mohan elaborated on his reasons for not including scenes of this nature not just for the character, but also with regard to Sweeney’s image.

Barry Levinson, director of Best Picture winner Rain Man (for which Levinson also won the Best Director Oscar), is producing a mystery thriller called American Sweatshop with Oz showrunner Tom Fontana, and Deadline reports that Riverdale, Look Both Ways, and Hustlers star Lili Reinhart has been cast in the lead role.
Emmy nominee Uta Briesewitz, whose previous credits include Stranger Things, The Wheel of Time, Westworld and This Is Us, is set to direct the film from a screenplay by Matthew Nemeth (City on a Hill).
In a device driven world, American Sweatshop will take a look at the toll of social media through the eyes of Daisy Moriarty (Reinhart), who while dealing with a chaotic personal life, finds herself sucked into the underbelly of the internet. Moriarty, and a motley group of coworkers, toil in a cottage industry of agencies that evaluate harmful and offensive pictures and videos uploaded to social media.

Eco-horror isn’t a sub-genre that gets talked about a ton unfortunately. It can be anything from animals attacking due to their sudden craving of human flesh like Grizzly or even just due to man not putting enough respect on the name of nature like in Long Weekend. The hey day of these is undoubtedly the 70s with things like Prophecy, The Swarm, Piranha, Phase 4, and a few other standouts. While the output certainly slowed down, there are more than a few standouts in the late 90s and even 21st century. We can’t seem to stop screwing up the planet and as we do, we get reminded that the planet may just fight back in ways like what is shown in Day After Tomorrow or to a hilarious degree in The Happening. A unique one that failed to make its budget back, even with good reviews and scores, is...

This April sees Zendaya cross a milestone it honestly feels like she should have reached ages ago: a legitimate leading role in a theatrical film. The actor has been one of the biggest stars of Generation Z and a much hyped starlet for years now, and yet a quick glance at her Wikipedia page reveals a shockingly short resume.
The Oakland born star’s adult film career, after a childhood in the Disney Channel machine leading sitcoms like “Shake It Up” and “Kc Undercover,” really only started in 2017, with a brief supporting turn in Marvel’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” Opposite her eventual real-life boyfriend Tom Holland, she only had a scant 10 minutes or so of screentime as the sarcastic teen Mj — hardly a star is born moment, despite what the advertising for the film would have you expect.
Zendaya would reprise her role in future Spider-Man films, and her screentime increased with each installment.

When Euphoria first aired, it set a new bar for teen dramas. Its cast is a mix of so many different characters with unique story storylines and personal struggles.
Each gave fans a different window into realities or a mirror to connect with.
It discusses addiction, sexual exploration, sexuality, domestic abuse, body image, first loves, heartbreaks, the ups and downs of friendships, and so much more.
The show has been awarded nine Emmys for its first two seasons, which is not an easy feat, and the actors' careers blew up from it.
It was an overnight success and had a magnetic effect on fans.
However, one question has been all the talk since the second season came out in January 2022: When will Season 3 air, or will there even be a third season?
However, there's a follow-up question that can't be ignored. Is it time to give up on Euphoria Season 3?

The fate of “Euphoria” Season 3 has been a constantly evolving topic since Season 2 finale ended in February 2022. Sam Levinson’s high school drama cemented itself as a cultural phenomenon after its first two seasons on HBO — but as many cast members saw their careers skyrocket, the task of reassembling everyone became increasingly challenging.
But even as the likes of Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, and Jacob Elordi continue to build film careers, the show was scheduled to resume production in summer 2024. Levinson had revealed that the third season, which he described as a “film noir,” would jump forward five years in time and follow the show’s cast as they establish their adult lives outside of East Highland High School. But as reports of creative differences and logistical struggles began to circulate, HBO announced in March that the cast had been released to pursue other opportunities this summer.

After Euphoria season 2 premiered on January 9, 2022, it has been years since fans have been waiting for the third installment. Despite the anticipation and excitement surrounding the project, the HBO teen drama repeatedly suffered delays in production and premiere. Recently, even Zendaya admitted being in the dark about Euphoria season 3 progress.

Looks like nobody is really sure about when ‘Euphoria’ will return with its season 3. Forget ardent fans, even Hollywood star Zendaya claims that she, too, is unaware of when the third season will begin production.
Although the ‘Euphoria’ star is an executive producer of the hit HBO series, she said she’s “not in charge” of whether or not the third season will really happen, reports Variety.
But of course, Zendaya wants to play Rue again. “If it’s right for the characters and everything turns out the way it should, of course,” Zendaya told Variety at the ‘Challengers’ premiere in Los Angeles Tuesday night (Pacific Standard Time). “But it’s beyond me.”
As per Variety, HBO announced the postponement of ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 on March 25, saying that the network and creator Sam Levinson “remain committed to making an exceptional third season.”

Zendaya is opening up about the stress that came with being a child actor and feeling anxious about always delivering out of fear that, if she doesn’t, people will lose interest in her.
The two-time Emmy winner sat down with Vogue for its May 2024 cover story, ahead of the release of her upcoming film, Challengers, which sees her portray a former tennis prodigy-turned-coach of a champion (Mike Faist) who’s on a losing streak. The Dune star is one of the few celebrities ever to cover Vogue and British Vogue in the same month.
“I have complicated feelings about kids and fame and being in the public eye, or being a child actor. We’ve seen a lot of cases of it being detrimental,” she told the publication when reflecting on her acting career, which began when she was 13 with the Disney Channel series Shake It Up. “And I think only now,...

Season 2 of HBO’s Euphoria ended on a fairly positive note, with the series being HBO’s second most-watched show of all time when it aired in 2022. Watching live on Sunday nights became popular thanks to the countless memes that sprouted from the show’s dramatic plotlines. But now that it’s been two years since Lexi’s play and the fight that ensued, and probably another year until filming for the next season even begins, it’s hard to see a full third season as the right step forward.
This isn’t to say that script delays are entirely Sam Levinson’s fault. The WGA strike lasted for nearly five months thanks to the AMPTP’s refusal to meet the guild’s reasonable terms, and the unexpected death of star Angus Cloud during that time also means that script revisions were likely needed as soon as work was able to begin again.

HBO’s hit teen drama Euphoria has been stirring up discussions since it first aired in 2019. The show, which doesn’t shy away from showing the realities of teenage life, has grabbed a lot of attention. The season 2’s premiere drew a huge audience of 5.2 million viewers, making it the second most-watched show on HBO, just behind Game of Thrones (via Variety).

Few current Hollywood TV projects have endured as much public turmoil as the planned “Euphoria” Season 3. Sam Levinson’s HBO drama has struggled to coordinate the schedules and creative tastes of its increasingly famous ensemble cast — which includes the likes of Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, and Jacob Elordi — since Season 2 ended in early 2022. The show’s famously difficult shoots only added to the pressure, but Levinson and company still planned to spend summer 2024 shooting a new season that was expected to take place five years after the events of Season 2.
Those plans came to a halt on Monday, March 25, when HBO officially announced that the new season had been delayed indefinitely. “HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” a representative for HBO told IndieWire at the time. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”

Oscar-winning director Barry Levinson has enjoyed success on the big and small screens throughout his five decades. Take a tour of our photo gallery ranking his 12 greatest feature films from worst to best.
Levinson began his career as a comedy writer on various variety shows in the 1970s ultimately landing a steady job writing for 72 episodes of “The Carol Burnett Show,” for which he won Emmys in 1974 and 1975, competing again in 1976. When that show ended he began writing screenplays and had a remarkably successful run co-writing two Mel Brooks movies — “Silent Movie” and “High Anxiety” — as well as two acclaimed dramas “Inside Moves” and “and Justice for All.” He would receive his first Oscar nomination for the screenplay of “And Justice for All.”
That success led Levinson to a feature film directing career. His semi-autobiographical film “Diner,” about a group of young men hanging out in his native Baltimore, became...

In an exclusive report from Variety, the outlet details the problems surrounding Euphoria Season 3, including story frustrations, rewrites, scheduling conflicts, and the fact that several show stars are some of Hollywood’s most in-demand actors.

Will Euphoria Season 3 ever see the light of day?
That’s been the big question ever since stars like Jacob Elordi and Sydney Sweeney soared in popularity after the release of Euphoria Season 2 in 2022.
Zendaya, who headlines the Emmy-winning drama, was a massive star before the show, and her career has continued to go from strength to strength during a lengthy hiatus between Euphoria Season 2 and the planned Euphoria Season 3.
When rumors swirled last week that the show had been canceled, HBO quickly pointed out that the cast was expected to return for filming later.
According to Variety, the series’ future is uncertain due to a myriad of issues.
Creator Sam Levinson allegedly turned in scripts for the third season that left HBO “feeling unsatisfied.”

Zendaya’s Euphoria has managed to garner massive ratings for HBO with its first two seasons, prompting the studio to trust Sam Levinson with a third season. While work on a potential new season began a long time back, HBO has officially announced a delay in the start of production. According to reports, the studio was initially content with Levinson’s pitch for the season, but lead star Zendaya’s certain suggestions to the script did not sit well with the executives.

The fate of the third season of Euphoria seems murkier than ever.
Following the massive success of Euphoria‘s Season One in 2019, Season Two was hit with the Covid pandemic and didn’t air until 2022. Afterwards, the tragic death of Angus Cloud, who played the beloved character Fezco, and the Hollywood writers and actors strikes, led to multiple delays and setbacks for the third installment.
On Monday, the streaming giant revealed that while creator Sam Levinson was still “committed” to making a third season of the hit drama, any projected premiere dates have been postponed.

During its two-season run on HBO, “Euphoria” has launched its young cast into superstardom and won multiple Emmys, while also being a magnet for controversy — but whatever lies ahead for the Sam Levinson-created show is going to have to wait.
Earlier this week, HBO officially delayed the drama, which was set to begin production later this spring. “HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” an HBO spokesperson told Variety. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”
What the network isn’t saying is that no one at HBO is at all sure a third season of “Euphoria” will ever come to fruition given the disparate visions for the show’s next chapter. But “Euphoria” has been invaluable to the network — attracting the often-elusive millennial and Gen Z viewers, as well as massive ratings — and executives from Casey Bloys...

And no, it’s not canceled, only delayed, so that Levinson may finish his script and accommodate a time jump between S2 and S3. “Euphoria” fans may be bummed they need to wait longer than until next year for a new season, but star Sydney Sweeney couldn’t be happier.

It was in January 2022 that Euphoria’s season 2 premiered. But since then the series’ potential third season has been facing one disaster after the other. From the unfortunate deaths of two cast and crew to reports of alleged toxic sets, the Sam Levinson series has been delayed again with a script in development.

Yet fans reckon that this new news of delay is just a cover-up for the alleged cancelation of the hit show. As fans are busy bickering whether the show should come back or not, and as the leads of the show are busy climbing the ladder of success elsewhere in the industry, one anonymous Euphoria star has blamed HBO for damaging their career.

Sydney Sweeney actually couldn’t be happier that “Euphoria” Season 3 — whose filming was recently delayed at HBO — will involve a time jump from Season 2.
The Emmy-nominated actress revealed in a Who What Wear cover story that the extra time between Seasons 2 and 3 of the teen drama will give the actress “more room for growth” as a person, which no doubt will be reflected in her character Cassie’s arc for the upcoming “wild” installment.
“I actually like it because there’s so much room for growth for both me as a person and also Cassie as a character,” Sweeney said.
She teased of the upcoming storyline, “It’s going to be very, very wild.”
A recent statement from HBO revealed that “Euphoria” showrunner Sam Levinson is still at work on Season 3 scripts. A network representative said that HBO and Levinson “remain committed to making an exceptional third season” and that “in the interim,...

HBO and Sam Levinson will presumably give us a third season of “Euphoria” … eventually.
A production delay will allow its extremely in-demand cast—including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Hunter Schafer, and Jacob Elordi—to continue to work elsewhere and also free the writers to put high school behind them, bringing these characters a bit further into the real world.
The Hollywood Reporter suggested that factoring in a time jump was more than a smart creative move, it would keep the very visible cast in the show’s good graces, since they can now, in HBO’s words “pursue other opportunities” and still “remain committed to making an exceptional third season.” No specific dates for the commencement of principal photography have been given, let alone an air date.
“Euphoria,” an adaptation of an Israeli drama of the same name, debuted in 2019 with eight episodes, then came back for a second season in 2022 with another eight.

It’s been over two years since the last episodes of Euphoria, so fans have been anxiously awaiting the return of the HBO series for some time. Unfortunately, it was confirmed earlier today that production on Euphoria season 3 has been officially paused, and new information has emerged which hints that when the series does finally return after this delay, there will be a major change.
According to The Wrap, Euphoria creator Sam Levinson is planning on a time jump between the second and third seasons, which will find the characters out of high school. Sources told The Wrap that HBO wanted to give Levinson “more time to break the story, because there’s a lot more back and forth now that the show is changing in this way,” hence the delay. Production was originally slated to begin in the next couple of months, but the cast has been allowed to...

The third season of Euphoria was set to begin filming this spring, but HBO has announced that the season is officially being delayed even further.
New reports have revealed what is going on behind the scenes at the Emmy-winning series and sources are explaining what led to the delays.
Season two aired in early 2022 and fans have been waiting for years to see what Zendaya‘s Rue and the rest of the characters have been up to.
The series began airing in 2019, so the actors who started out as high school students are now aged out of those roles. So a time jump storyline has also been revealed.

When Euphoria eventually returns for its third season, Rue and friends will no longer be in high school.
Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that multiple factors are behind HBO’s decision to delay production on the third season of the drama starring Zendaya, notably conversations between the network and creator Sam Levinson on where the action will be set after the characters leave high school. Initially slated to begin in the coming months, production is now forced to hit pause as the creative team and network hash out the new world.
Sources close to the series say Levinson’s plan is to feature a time jump when the third season eventually returns — ideally in 2025 but no longer guaranteed. Also unclear is the number of episodes that will make up season three as Levinson and HBO go back and forth on the arcs for Rue (Zendaya), Nate (Jacob Elordi), Jules (Hunter Schafer...

Sam Levinson is moving the “Euphoria” storyline away from high school into early adulthood, and HBO agreed to give the showrunner more time to get it right, TheWrap has learned.
The racy teenage show — one of HBO’s biggest hits — was already delayed because of last year’s double strikes. But the decision to make the characters older will also serve to make the show’s edgy theme of sex and drugs less risqué.
Levinson’s last show, “The Idol,” was canceled after widespread accusations that it was exploitative rather than just edgy.
An individual close to the production told TheWrap that Levinson’s writing schedule was delayed during the strikes, and the network “wanted to give him more time to break the story, because there’s a lot more back and forth now that the show is changing in this way.”

HBO’s hit controversial show Euphoria from the risqué maestro, Sam Levinson, has delayed the shoot for season 3. Levinson had planned to work on season 3 while his other series for HBO, Idol, was in post-production, but the dual strikes from the writers’ and actors’ unions would initially hold up the production. HBO’s Head of Drama Francesca Orsi said last year, “Euphoria is one of those that we had begun writing in tandem with post-production on Idol but at this point, we don’t have countless scripts. We can’t start shooting, so the delivery of that show — ideally in 2025 — will be determined on when we can pick back up with Sam [Levinson], who at this point is all pencils down and just finishing posts on Idol.“
Now HBO is telling Deadline that while Levinson tweaks the scripts for season 3, they are letting the stars take on other projects during the delay.

Fans of “Euphoria” will have to wait even longer for a third season.
Season 3 has been plagued with all sorts of false starts. Last we officially heard, in May 2023, HBO drama chief Francesca Orsi said the third season was expected to air in 2025. However, a new statement from the network announced that production has been delayed.
“HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” a representative for HBO told IndieWire. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”
“Euphoria” marked breakout roles for Zendaya (who has won two Emmy Awards for her portrayal of teen drug addict Rue), Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Hunter Schafer, Dominic Fike, Barbie Ferreira, Oscar-nominated actor Colman Domingo, and the late Angus Cloud, who died in 2023. Season 2 concluded in February 2022. Sweeney recently told MTV at SXSW that she was “going into ‘Euphoria'” production next.

Filming for Euphoria season three has been put on hold.
The Sam Levinson drama was expected to start production soon on its long-awaited new season. But that plan has changed to give Levinson more time to work on the dark teen drama’s scripts.
In addition, the show’s cast — which includes Dune: Part Two star Zendaya and Anyone but You star Sydney Sweeney — is being allowed to pursue other opportunities.
“HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” HBO said in a statement. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”
That said, the cast has not been released from their contracts, and HBO still intends to get Euphoria season three on the air sometime in 2025.

Sydney Sweeney’s rising career which has been marked by smart choices, unfortunately hit a roadblock with the dismal reception of Madame Web. Having gained superstardom with her marquee gig in Euphoria followed by appearances in The White Lotus, The Handmaid’s Tale, and the romantic comedy Anyone But You, Sweeney cemented herself as one of the most popular and desirable young stars in Hollywood.

But her role as Julia Carpenter in the Sony-Marvel film has taken away some of the shine in her repertoire. The movie tanked majorly at the box office and has garnered some criticisms for Sweeney and Dakota Johnson as well. Despite this misstep in her career, the actor has been gracious and positive about her involvement in the film.

The Batman Part II is flying off to a new date. The film will now open Oct. 2, 2026. That’s back a full year from its previous date.
Batman 2 wasn’t the only notable change made to Warner Bros. release calendar on Tuesday: The Maggie Gyllenhaal-directed The Bride!, starring Christian Bale, will take Batman 2‘s old date of Oct. 3, 2025; Barry Levinson’s gangster pic Alto Nights is being delayed from Nov. 24, 2024, to March 21, 2025; and Paul Thomas Anderson’s untitled, star-studded event pic has landed an Aug. 8, 2025, release date. All of the titles will be offered in Imax.

Matt Reeves’ The Batman 2 is no longer opening on October 3, 2025 — a new launchpad for comic book movies. Instead, it is going a year later on October, 2, 2026. We hear the new date is due to the aftermath of the dual strikes.
The spacing also will give some distance from James Gunn’s Superman, which is hitting cinemas on July 11, 2025. That film will kick off Gunn and Peter Safran’s new DC Studios, the first phase titled “Gods and Monsters.”
Reeves’ Batman is not part of the Gunn universe, but it’s all kosher to co-exist. Gunn has another Batman movie in the works, Batman: Brave and the Bold, with Andy Muschietti directing. Robert Pattinson plays Batman in Reeves’ universe. The role will be recast for Muschietti’s film.

Nika King, who plays Leslie Bennett in the HBO megahit, opened up about the situation during a stand-up comedy set.
Given that the show has been off the air for two years and production has yet to get back underway, it makes sense that fans are asking the stars at every opportunity when to expect new episodes.
Bennett noted that “Season 3 is coming out,” but she has no idea when.
“I don’t know when,” she added before conceding that “it’s one of those things.”

Euphoria fans have been waiting for new episodes for over two years, and the delay shows no signs of slowing down soon.
Colman Domingo, who plays Ali on the HBO drama, is opening up about the reason behind the delay, and it’s not what you think.
While many thought the burgeoning careers of stars like Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, Hunter Schafer, and Sydney Sweeney were behind the delays, the Fear the Walking Dead alum claims it’s all down to series creator Sam Levinson.
“[Sam is] a person who writes and rewrites and writes and rewrites again, because I think he’s wrestling with what’s important,” Domingo told GQ in a new interview.
“He’s responding immediately to what the ills of the world are. I know that the one thing I can tell you is that he’s very much interested in the existential question of who we are right now.

Hunter Schafer is leading her first horror film.
The “Euphoria” breakout star appears in Tilman Singer’s “Cuckoo,” with the haunting logline reading, “The adolescent needs to be trained.”
The Neon release, headed for the Berlin Film Festival next week, co-stars Dan Stevens, Jessica Henwick, Marton Csókás, and Jan Bluthardt.
The official synopsis reads: “Reluctantly, 17-year-old Gretchen (Schafer) leaves her American home to live with her father, who has just moved into a resort in the German Alps with his new family.

Los Angeles, Jan 27 (Ians) Actress Sydney Sweeney, who starred as Cassie Howard on the teen drama series ‘Euphoria’, shared that during an episode of the show’s second season, her character threw up in a hot tub but the crew went to great lengths to make sure the vomiting was more dramatic than usual when it is depicted on screen.
Speaking on YouTube series ‘The Hot Ones’, she said: “They had to create because Sam wanted it to be projectile vomit everywhere whereas a lot of films will just have a cup of mushed up anything that they have from the craft team and it’s just mixed with milk and water. It’s the most disgusting thing – you just put it in your mouth and hold it then you puke it up. But Sam didn’t want that, he wanted vomit everywhere,” reports Female First UK.

Sydney Sweeney may just be the expert when it comes to puking on camera.
On the latest episode of Hot Ones, the Emmy-nominated actress shared the gruesome behind-the-scenes details of how she and Sam Levinson created the perfect projectile vomit in the infamous season two hot tub scene in Euphoria.
“There was a lot of work that went behind that,” Sweeney said, “because Sam, of course, wanted it to be just projectile vomit everywhere.”
The Anyone But You star explained that, typically, fake vomit for TV shows is made of a mixed-up paste of whatever is lying around that the craft team has access to, combined with milk and water. “You just put it in your mouth, and then you hold it, and you puke it up,” she added.
But that wasn’t good enough for Levinson. He wanted extreme vomit.
So, to meet these standards, she explained, “They had to get a pump,...
