The approach is intended to deliver an expanded image that reflects the characters’ transition beyond high school.

White, Kevin Turen, Ravi Nandan, Drake, Adel “Future” Nur, Ron Leshem, Daphna Levin, Hadas Mozes Lichtenstein, Mirit Toovi, Tmira Yardeni, Yoram Mokady, and Gary Lennon. The series is based on the original Israeli drama created by Ron Leshem and Daphna Levin.
Euphoria Season 3 premieres Monday, 13 April, streaming weekly on HBO Max in Australia.
