If the break between Euphoria seasons were a class, we would all be in the third round of a patience test. But Colman Domingo, our favorite Ali Muhammed and mentor, arrived with an encouraging report for fans: the third season is going to be a spectacle that was worth every second of waiting.

And he's not just creating hype; according to his own words, what he heard took his breath away.

From the start, Euphoria was always more than just a series; it's almost a sensory experience. With electrifying visuals and deeply cutting narratives, Sam Levinson's work transformed how youth is portrayed on television.

The third season of Euphoria has huge shoes to fill. Colman Domingo hints that the show plans to do more than just meet expectations—it wants to blow everyone away. Fans are past the point of just hoping the new season will be decent. Now, they're eagerly waiting to see exactly how much magic Sam Levinson can create this time around.

The excitement isn't just about whether the season will be good, but about how extraordinary it might become. People want to know: How far will Levinson push the boundaries? What new emotional depths will the show explore?

Euphoria Season 3 - "It’s characters that we know, and we’re on the journey with…"

Before you ask if Colman has read the script, we already have the answer: a loud "no". But this didn't stop creator Sam Levinson from sharing some details that Domingo described as fantastic.

Speaking to Variety, he revealed:

"I have not seen a script, but I have heard about some scripts, and what I’ve heard is fantastic. It’s characters that we know, and we’re on the journey with, and we’re fighting for them as they’re fighting for their own spaces in the world. They’re all having breakthroughs in many ways. That’s what I found out."

This glimpse of the script reinforces the series' emotional depth while suggesting that Levinson is committed to exploring new nuances of characters we already know.

Each story arc seems to be an opportunity for expansion, where complex characters encounter new and unexpected challenges—and resolutions that promise to be a chance to reconnect with stories that resonate uniquely with the audience.

"Let me just tell you a little bit about it. From what he told me, it took my breath away."

This statement by Levinson, reported by Domingo, is the synthesis of everything that makes Euphoria such a unique series. When the show's creator talks about the upcoming season as something that will take your breath away, it's hard not to get curious.

Sam Levinson is already famous for writing stories that are super intense and feel incredibly real. The way he's describing the new season suggests he might have pushed his creative limits.

Domingo was emphatic in praising Levinson's work:

"I think it’s going to be an incredible, incredible Season 3, well worth the wait. We will deliver, I promise you that."

These words aren't just typical actor excitement. They show a deep belief in a creative vision that wants to break all the usual storytelling rules. Sam Levinson isn't just making another season of a TV show.

He's trying to create something that could completely change how we think about dramatic series. It's like he's not just telling a story, but trying to rewrite the entire rulebook of television storytelling.

"Unfortunately, Gia’s not returning…"

Not all news is good, though. Storm Reid, who played Gia, Rue's younger sister, confirmed that she won't be part of the new season.

"Unfortunately, Gia’s not returning to the third season, but I am so, so indebted to the cast and the crew of that show, to HBO. Euphoria’s a really special, really special thing, and I’m so glad that that’s a part of my legacy" — said Reid in a recent interview.

Her absence from the show will definitely be noticeable, especially for fans who loved watching the complicated relationship between Rue and Gia.

But this change might also mean that Sam Levinson wants to explore stories of other characters, possibly giving more attention and screen time to relationships and conflicts that haven't been fully developed until now.

"Took my breath away"—A promise that's hard to ignore

Colman Domingo didn't hold back his praise for Sam Levinson, calling the new season the "most beautiful writing" the creator has done. And this is significant coming from someone who helped turn Euphoria into a cultural phenomenon.

If the first two acts of this modern opera have already earned nine Emmy Awards, including two for Zendaya and one for Domingo himself, the third season seems destined to raise the bar even higher.

While Sam Levinson works on bringing the series back in a big way, fans are getting ready to dive back into the wild world of Euphoria.

This means returning to the show's perfect mix of crazy chaos, unexpected beauty, and heart-pounding intensity. Colman Domingo has made some exciting promises about the new season, and Levinson has backed those promises up.

We're all waiting eagerly to experience every single moment of what looks like it's going to be an incredible show. When they talk about "breathtaking moments," it's not just a catchy marketing phrase—it's a statement of intent.
