The third season of Euphoria has been stuck in development for quite some time, and its return is nowhere in sight. Its leading lady Zendaya recently addressed the future of the hit HBO drama, and said that what happens next is beyond her.

Zendaya is currently busy promoting one of the buzziest new films coming out this spring, Luca Guadagnino’s tennis dramedy Challengers. Its world premiere took place in Los Angeles on Tuesday night, but this wasn’t the only project she discussed with the reporters on the red carpet.

Questions about the third season of Euphoria also emerged, and Zendaya told Variety that she’s “not in charge” of what happens next. When asked if she’d like to play Rue again, she said, “If it’s right for the characters and everything turns out the way it should, of course”, while also adding that the show’s future is “beyond” her.

The third season of Euphoria was in development for quite some time, but HBO announced they’re postponing it indefinitely just last month. The network said that its creator is “committed to making an exceptional third season”, while also adding they’re allowing the show’s cast to seek other roles in the interim, without specifying a potential start of production.
