Euphoria season 3 may focus on the complicated love triangle between Cassie, Maddie, and Nate

As of now, there has been no official trailer for the upcoming Euphoria season 3. However, the franchise has released a short teaser, creating buzz around the heart-pumping installment in the critically acclaimed series.

In the inaugural season of Euphoria, viewers saw a change in the dynamic of the relationships between Rue and Jules, and the two decided to run away from the city. However, the plot took a turn when Rue decided to let Jules go without her at the railway station. The finale added up the spice when Rue broke her sobriety, showcasing her state of depression as she went through a series of outbursts and relapses. As such, the first season rose several questions related to Rue's fate after she tries to jump off a mountain cliff.

The second season's finale involved a subtle mix of closure, suspense, violence, drugs, and drama. An interesting revelation came in the second season as Rue remained sober till the end of her junior year in high school. However, like the first season, the finale of the secon installment took a wild turn when Nate turned his father, Cal, to the police for allegedly recording se*xual tapes without consent.

The second season weaved a soft ending, where Jules confided about her love for Rue and gave her a parting kiss, suggesting that they don't get back together.

Given the storylines in the past two installments of Euphoria, there are several probable plotlines for the upcoming season to cover. Viewers can expect a narrative infused with much more depth and promises to bring compelling storytelling that will focus on the exploration of Rue and Jules' reconciled relationship or Cassie's mental health.
