What Is ‘Euphoria’ Season 2 About?
During an interview with Bustle in July, Coleman teased fans about what they should expect from Euphoria season two, saying that while they hadn’t yet wrapped production, filming had been "difficult" up to that point.
“It’s definitely challenging,” she shared. “It’s a challenging season. It’s gonna be hard and it’s gonna be devastating sometimes, but I think Rue really deserves all of that care when it comes to her character, because I think she represents a lot for so many people.”
Sydney Sweeney Teases Jaw-Dropping Episodes
During an interview with Stylecaster, via Marie Claire, Sweeney opened up about the over-the-top storylines of the sophomore season of the HBO show.
"I can tease that, when you ask about season 2, my heart drops. In a you-guys-have-no-idea-what-you’re-going-to-watch way. Cassie really needs to get her sh-t together. I can’t say anything else. Cassie has a crazy storyline in season 2 that I did not expect. Every time I read a new episode that Sam writes, my jaw is on the ground and I can’t believe this is something coming out of someone’s mind," she stated.
