The viral attention adds to the ongoing online buzz surrounding Euphoria season 3, which premiered in April and has already sparked discussions over its controversial storylines, cast performances, and explicit scenes.
Speaking recently on Entertainment Weekly’s “The Awardist” podcast, Elordi opened up about filming the new season and described the experience as more spontaneous than his previous acting work. The actor explained that he had limited preparation time and often relied on creative conversations with creator Sam Levinson instead of full scripts.
Elordi said the process allowed him to feel “free in the acting process” and approach scenes in a more relaxed and instinctive way. He also praised Levinson for giving him creative freedom during filming.
Outside the series, Elordi has also made headlines in recent weeks over reported romance rumours involving Kendall Jenner, though neither star has publicly addressed the speculation.
