Zendaya appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” on April 6 to promote “The Drama” and her several other projects. During the discussion, host Drew Barrymore mentioned “Euphoria” and asked if the upcoming third season would be the final outing for the HBO drama series.

Zendaya responded, “I think so, yeah.” Barrymore then said, “I never want to ask questions like that, because it’s not my business, and yet, is this to be enjoyed knowing [it will end]?”

After that, Zendaya stated, “Yes, I think so,” before saying, “That closure is coming.” So far, HBO has neither confirmed nor denied that “Euphoria” will end after season three.

As mentioned, there is no official confirmation that “Euphoria” will end with season three, despite Zendaya’s public comments. However, fans of the show are reacting, with many saying they already believed this would be the show’s final season before Zendaya’s “Drew Barrymore Show” appearance.

One person said on X, “HBO staying silent is classic corporate chess — they get the viral speculation for free while keeping the door cracked for spin-offs, movies, whatever prints money later. Smart, but it also feels like they know the lightning-in-a-bottle era is over.”

They continued, “Look, Euphoria changed television. It made us feel uncomfortable on purpose, launched half the young cast into superstardom, and gave Zendaya the kind of role most actors wait a lifetime for. But dragging it past this season risks turning it into the show that used to be great.”

Another “Euphoria” fan said, “Zendaya saying ‘I think so’ for Euphoria… yeah, that sounds like the end is near.” Lastly, someone else wrote, “lowkey gutted that season 3 is the last of ‘Euphoria.'”

One of Zendaya’s several projects released in 2026 was “The Drama,” which arrived in movie theaters on April 3. According to BoxOfficeMojo, the movie debuted at number three in the US, making $14,380,197. “The Drama” came in behind “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie” and “Project Hail Mary” in the number one and two positions, respectively.

Regarding reviews, “The Drama” currently has a 77% rating from critics and an 81% rating from audiences, making it “certified fresh” with both. This is despite TMZ having revealed the controversial twist of the movie, which is that Zendaya’s character once considered going through with a school shooting.

Because of the film’s subject matter, some critics vowed not to review it, and it also drew attention from various gun violence prevention organizations, such as March For Our Lives, according to IndieWire.

As mentioned, 2026 will be among the busiest 12 months of Zendaya’s stellar career. This is evidenced by the fact that she will have five projects released to the work before the end of the year.

After that, Zendaya will star in “Dune: Part Three,” in which her “The Drama “co-star Pattinson will also appear.

Regarding her busy schedule, Zendaya told Fandango in March 2026 that she would take a break after this year. She said, “I guess, you know, I just hope people don’t get sick of me. I really appreciate everyone who supports any of the movies or who supports my career in any kind of way.”

Zendaya went on, “I’m deeply appreciative, and like I said, I just hope you guys don’t get sick of me this year because I’ll tell you what: after this, I’m disappearing for a little bit. I’m going to have to go into hiding for just a little bit.”

“Euphoria” premieres on HBO and HBO Max on April 12.
