Sam Levinson is closing the book on "Euphoria", confirming that the Season 3 finale has served as the series finale for the drama starring Zendaya.

“In terms of the story that we set out to tell, which is a story about addiction and its consequences, this feels like the end to me,” Levinson said in a NYT interview published Sunday night. The series’ conclusion has also been confirmed by HBO.



After Nate Jacobs’ (Jacob Elordi) brutal death in the penultimate episode, it was central character, Zendaya’s Rue Bennett, who died of a fentanyl overdose in the finale.

That was how cast member Angus Cloud had died in real life during the writing of Season 3. “It was a way of honoring Angus and saying a prayer for the future,” Levinson told NYT about crafting the finale as a tribute to the late actor.
