The upcoming third season of HBO’s acclaimed series “Euphoria” is set to elevate its musical landscape by bringing in Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer. Renowned for his work on films like “Interstellar” and “True Romance,” Zimmer will team up with returning composer Labrinth, who has been instrumental in defining the show’s unique sound in its first two seasons.
Zimmer expressed his enthusiasm about joining the project, stating, “It’s an honor to join this incredible team of storytellers led by the visionary Sam Levinson.” He acknowledged the significance of the series and shared his eagerness to contribute to the evolving narrative through music.
Labrinth echoed this sentiment, describing the collaboration as an exciting opportunity to infuse new elements into the series. He stated, “So great to join Hans, one of my heroes in film score, and bring some new magic to this new season.”
Filming for “Euphoria” season three commenced in February, with returning cast members including Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Sydney Sweeney, and Jacob Elordi, among others. Notably, actress Sharon Stone has joined the cast. This season will also introduce a time jump, transitioning the characters from their high school setting into their young adulthood.
Sam Levinson, the show’s creator and showrunner, expressed his admiration for Zimmer and noted that he had written this season while immersed in Zimmer’s scores, highlighting the musical influences that have shaped the series from its inception. He anticipates that Zimmer’s involvement will push the creative boundaries of the show even further.
With such a stellar lineup both in front of and behind the camera, fans can look forward to a compelling new chapter in “Euphoria,” set to premiere in 2026. The collaboration between Zimmer and Labrinth promises to add a fresh layer of depth and emotion to the already powerful storytelling of the series.
