Euphoria’s trailer racked up 100M views within just 48 hours of its launch, hinting that the charm and the fan admiration for the HBO title have not gone anywhere even after four year hiatus.
The first look pictured shared on social media platforms already gave a sense of the tonality; now, the full trailer brings to light a fuller picture of what to expect. Euphoria holds a strong appeal for young and adult viewers alike with its probe into teenage lives, addiction and dark secrets contoured by unlimited powers.
Euphoria Season 3 trailer manages to break all records for HBO
Fans had waited for a long time since Season 2 entertained them with its thrilling story. All major core characters went through intense arcs and emerged at the point from where Season 3 can launch.
Several previous titles have earned massive views in their trailers. The Last of Us 2 set a very high number and Euphoria has already emerged as the platform’s most viewed shows according to HBO.
Season 3 gears up tons of excitement due to the returning faces. Jacob Elordi, Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Sydney Sweeney and more. Previously, Deadline had hinted that new faces had joined the intense Season 3.
Arguably, Season 3’s tonality seems more complex than Season 2. It involves more stakes, more characters than we knew from the previous chapters. Rue, played by Zendaya, appears to be in more trouble than before.
Eric Dane brought to life the single most antagonistic and dominant presence in the previous season; however, as the trailer suggests, a new entrant appears to have taken that space.
Therefore, this new trailer gains more and more attention as fans try to piece together clues as to what the new chapter may bring. Deadline had reported new additions to the show.
These include:
- Natasha Lyonne
- Danielle Deadwyler
- Eli Roth
- Bella Podaras
- Bill Bodner
- Cailyn Rice
- Colleen Camp
- Gideon Adlon
- Hemky Madera
- Homer Gere
- Jack Topalian
- Jessica Blair Herman
- Kwame Patterson
- Madison Thompson
- Matthew Willig
- Rebecca Pidgeon
- Sam Trammell
- Trisha Paytas
- Sharon Stone
- Rosalía
- Marshawn Lynch
- Kadeem Hardison
- Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje
- Toby Wallace
- Darrell Britt-Gibson
- Priscilla Delgado
- James Landry Hébert
- Anna Van Patten
With a strong cast and visually stunning, dark and thrilling tease at Season 3, Euphoria comes ready to get fans energized once again. The trailer hints that the school phase of the young characters is now over, replaced by arcs that are now out of that closed circle.
Some wild guesses may center around Rue’s arc. She was stuck in a weird spot in Season 2, owing money to dangerous people. Now in Season 3, we see Laurie walk upto her asking for her money.
If anything, seasoned fans know that this may just be the beginning of a downward spiral. But it is too soon to talk about the possibilities as the show will hit screens with its third season on April 12.
The high views right at the beginning of trailer launch suggest that the prestige and the charm delivered and enjoyed by the HBO title has not grown stale. It remains ever shining as the glittery visuals of Euphoria.
