What Is The ‘Euphoria’ Cast Doing Now? Upcoming Movies, TV Shows

In the aftermath of the massively successful “Dune: Part Two,” Zendaya has another buzzy project already lined up: Luca Guadagnino’s “Challengers” on April 26. The movie follows a love triangle between tennis players and past flames, and it co-stars “The Crown” actor Josh O’Connor and “West Side Story” star Mike Faist. “Challengers” was supposed to debut last year but was delayed due to the actors strike and moved to this spring, where anticipation has only increased. There’s also the question of a third “Dune” movie and if director Denis Villeneuve will adapt the next book in the series, “Dune Messiah.” He and Zendaya have both expressed interest in making a threequel, but it hasn’t been greenlit yet. There’s also the possibility of a fourth “Spider-Man” movie, where Zendaya could reprise her MJ role, but Marvel has been tight-lipped.

“Would we be down? I mean of course,” Zendaya said when asked about making another “Dune” movie. “Any time Denis calls it’s a yes from me. I’m excited to see what happens. I started ‘Messiah’ and I was like, ‘Woah, I’m only shooting the first movie. Let me just go back to the first one.’ It’s so much to take in, but there’s no better hands with better care and love for it than Denis.”

Sydney Sweeney recently delivered Neon its biggest box office opening ever thanks to the launch of the horror movie “Immaculate,” which she also produced. This box office win followed in the footsteps of “Anyone but You,” which Sweeney starred in opposite Glen Powell and powered to a huge $216 million at the worldwide box office. Sweeney currently has a “Barbarella” remake in development at Sony Pictures, the studio behind “Anyone but You.” She’s also been fielding script offers for a second movie that would reunite her with Powell. Her upcoming film roles also include the thriller “Echo Valley,” in which she stars opposite Julianne Moore, and “Eden,” the new survival thriller from Ron Howard that co-stars Ana de Armas, Vanessa Kirby, Jude Law and Daniel Brühl.

Jacon Elordi’s film career boomed in 2023 thanks to the releases of Sofia Coppola’s “Priscilla,” in which he played music icon Elvis Presley, and Emerald Fennell’s “Saltburn,” which became a social media sensation thanks to the chemistry between Elordi and co-star Barry Keoghan. He’s pairing with two major directors for his next movie projects. He’s playing The Monster in Guillermo del Toro’s reimagining of “Frankenstein,” which includes a star-studded ensemble featuring Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth, Charles Dance and Christoph Waltz. He’s also headlining Paul Schrader’s new movie, “Oh Canada,” alongside Richard Gere, Michael Imperioli and Uma Thurman. Another film that should be arriving sometime this year is “On Swift Horses,” which also stars Daisy Edgar Jones. On the television front, Elordi is starring in the miniseries “The Narrow Road to the Deep North.” Based on the book by Richard Flanagan, the show hails from “Snowtown” and “Nitram” filmmaker Justin Kurzel.

Abrams wowed audiences when his character Ethan starred in the meta school play in Season 2 of “Euphoria,” which dramatized the lives of the show’s main characters.

Most recently, King appeared in the 2023 prehistoric-set film “65” starring Adam Driver and the 2024 short film “The Rebel Girls.” King recently joked during a comedy set that she hadn’t paid her rent in six months due to the delay of “Euphoria” Season 3.

Prior to the latest update on Season 3, it was already confirmed that Ferreira, who played Kat, would not be returning to “Euphoria” after the first two seasons. Following reports of conflict with creator Sam Levinson, Ferreira said on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” that it was a “mutual decision” for her to depart the series. “I don’t think there was a place for [Kat] to go,” Ferreira said. “I think there were places she could have gone. I just don’t think it would have fit into the show. I don’t know if it was going to do her justice, and I think both parties knew that. I really wanted to be able to not be the fat best friend. I don’t want to play that, and I think they didn’t want that either.”

Beyond “Euphoria,” Ferreira has several projects slated for release. In 2024, she will star in the comedy “Bob Trevino Likes It,” which follows a woman searching for her estranged father. She is also in the Blumhouse-produced horror film “House of Spoils” with Ariana DeBose, also set for release in 2024.
