Grammy winning pop artist Rosalia is the latest star to join Euphoria Season 3, and her role might catch you by surprise. She was one of the most talked about new additions to the ensemble and in the show’s second episode, we finally get to see her for the first time. It’s a significant career pivot for her, especially given her success in music.
In a statement she sahred announcing her role, Rosalia wrote,
“Euphoria has been my favorite series over the last few years and I couldn’t be happier and more grateful to be acting alongside all of these incredibly talented people that I admire so much and contributing my ‘granito de arena’ to bring Sam [Levinson’s] vision to reality to make magic. I can’t wait to share what we’re doing!!!”
Rosalia plays the role of Magick, a stripper working in Alamo’s strip club which is called Silver Slipper. In the scene, we see her arguing about her neck brace and is being forced to take it off so she can go and perform.
Sam Levinson previously told Elle Magazine about working with the singer on Euphoria Season 3 where he stated,
“I love unleashing her on a scene. I let her play with the words, the emotions, in English and Spanish. I never want to tell her what to do first, because her natural instincts are so fascinating, charismatic, and funny. Every scene we shoot, I’m behind the camera smiling.”
Her connection to Euphoria predates her casting as in 2021, she collaborated with Billie Eilish on Lo Vas a Olvidar, which featured on the first season’s soundtrack.
What happened in Euphoria Season 3 Episode 2?
The second episode of Euphoria Season 3, titled America My Dream, opens with a look at Maddy and her career. We see a flashback where she approached a potential boss directly at a restaurant, landing the job on the spot. She primarily works with influencers and when she reconnects with Cassie, Maddy becomes her unofficial career architect, as they talk about her OnlyFans career and how sjhe forgives her after the whole Nate scandal.
Rue now works for Alamo at the Silver Slipper nightclub, tasked with working at the strip club and feeding his pigs. Alamo demanded Rue from Laurie as payback for the contaminated drugs, freeing Rue from her debt but binding her to a new, darker master.
Jules now lives in a swanky penthouse as a sugar baby to a married man. When Rue shows up unannounced, Jules dismisses her at first, but later invites her to join her in the bath.
Euphoria Season 3 is now streaming on HBO Max.
