With creator Sam Levinson still working on scripts for the upcoming third season of HBO’s Euphoria, filming has been temporarily put on hold, with the cast given permission to take other acting jobs in the interim.

“HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” the network said in a statement to Deadline. In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”

According to sources, there had been no firm production start date for Season 3 but filming was expected to begin within the next couple of months.

Asked about taking time off after the South by Southwest premiere of her new horror movie, Immaculate earlier this month, Sweeney, said, “I go into Euphoria.”

Euphoria, whose second season aired more than two years ago, saw the careers of its cast explode. It boasts four big movie stars, Zendaya, Sweeney, Jacob Elordi and Colman Domingo, with Storm Reid winning an Emmy earlier this year. All are in big demand, which prompted HBO’s decision to allow them to take other work during the production delay since they are in first position on Euphoria.

The network said last fall that the plan is for Season 3 of Euphoria to premiere in 2025. That remains the goal.
