‘Euphoria’: Sharon Stone Joins the Cast of HBO’s Original Series for Season Three

A Star-Studded Addition to the Cast

The hit drama series Euphoria is gearing up for its third season with a major surprise: the iconic Sharon Stone is joining the cast. HBO recently confirmed the news, sparking excitement among fans of the Sam Levinson-created series. Filming has already begun in Los Angeles, and the legendary actress’s presence promises to elevate the intensity and drama that define the show.

“There are few things more exciting than working with this incredibly talented team. From the genius of Sam Levinson to the profound sophistication of this deeply moving cast and crew. I am honored to be part of Euphoria,” stated Sharon Stone in an official statement.

Stone’s inclusion marks a significant moment in the show’s evolution, as the acclaimed actress brings decades of experience in psychological thrillers, drama, and crime films. Her ability to portray complex, often enigmatic characters makes her a fascinating addition to Euphoria’s already gripping narrative.

A Cast That Keeps Evolving

Since its 2019 debut, Euphoria has become a television phenomenon, not only for its raw portrayal of youth and excess but also for the quality of its cast. The third season will see the return of Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Eric Dane, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demie, Maude Apatow, Colman Domingo, Martha Kelly, and Chloe Cherry.

Alongside Sharon Stone, new faces will also join the cast, including Spanish singer ROSALÍA, actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Toby Wallace, Marshawn Lynch, Darrell Britt-Gibson, Kadeem Hardison, Priscilla Delgado, James Landry Hébert, and Anna Van Patten.

Stone’s inclusion is particularly thrilling given her legacy in film and television. Known for her roles in Basic Instinct, Casino, and The Quick and the Dead, the actress will bring her magnetic presence and experience to a story that constantly evolves. Given her history of playing characters with a dark and mysterious edge, fans are speculating that she could portray a pivotal new antagonist or a figure from one of the main characters’ past.

The Impact of Season Three

With production underway, details about the new season’s plot remain under wraps. However, Sam Levinson has promised that the upcoming episodes will delve even deeper into the darkness and complexity of the characters, especially Rue, played by Zendaya, who is also an executive producer of the series.

Reports suggest that the new season will shift its focus towards themes of power, consequence, and redemption. This could align well with Stone’s strengths, possibly casting her as a mentor figure, a villainous character, or even a relative of one of the protagonists. Fans are already buzzing with theories, speculating that her character could be linked to Laurie (Martha Kelly), the chilling drug dealer introduced in season two.

Euphoria is renowned for its hypnotic visual style, raw exploration of adolescence, and unmistakable soundtrack. Backed by A24 and under Levinson’s creative leadership, season three is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated television events in the coming months.

Adding to the anticipation, Zendaya and other cast members have hinted at a more cinematic feel for the new season, with longer, more immersive episodes and a deeper exploration of character backstories. With an actress of Sharon Stone’s caliber involved, the storytelling possibilities are endless.

What role will Sharon Stone play in this universe? That remains unknown, but just the thought of her sharing the screen with Zendaya and the rest of the cast is enough to heighten fans’ anticipation. One thing is certain: her presence will bring even more gravitas to an already compelling show.
