Last week, rumours were circulating that the hit drama’s third season had quietly been cancelled at HBO, prompting a retort from a representative that confirmed the show will be moving ahead as planned.

In a statement issued back in July, HBO’s head of drama Francesca Orsi said she was “thrilled” to reveal that the show will begin shooting this coming January, with the entire main cast set to return.

There have been numerous reports about the delay of the third season, which were compounded by the death of Euphoria star Angus Cloud in August last year. The delays even confused its lead stars – with Sydney Sweeney telling NME that she doesn’t “know how soon I’m going home”. Meanwhile, Zendaya said earlier this year that the show’s delays were “beyond me”.

Now, in a new interview with Vanity Fair, Zendaya has said she still hasn’t seen a script but confirmed that filming on the show was to begin in January.

She explained: “[Euphoria] is slated for January, I believe. I haven’t read anything yet, but I’m excited to see what everyone has been working on, and what the future looks like for Euphoria. I don’t really have much of an answer except for right now it’s set to start shooting in January.

“My most important thing is to do justice by the people who love and care about Rue [Zendaya’s character in the show], and make sure that she’s looked after as a character. I think that’s my number one duty.”

Addressing rumours that the show had been cancelled, HBO boss Casey Bloys also expanded on the company’s stance for Euphoria season three this week.

Ahead of the show’s production beginning in January, Bloys said to members of the press at an HBO event yesterday (November 12) per Variety: “We are shooting Euphoria. I think we have a start date, mid to late January. Nothing’s changed. Somebody said something online, and then this whole thing started. We are shooting the season. I have read the scripts. We’re happy. We’re moving ahead. All of the actors are in the show.”

Bloys continued: “I know the show gets a lot of attention now because, you know, it has created some genuine movie stars, and they have various projects that are working on, but we are shooting this season, so nothing has changed. It’s eight episodes.”
