After dropping the teaser for the hotly-anticipated second season of Euphoria in November, HBO has finally released the full trailer – and it’s as intense as you’d expect.
The trailer lives up to Zendaya’s – who plays recovering teen drug addict Rue Bennett – previous warning that the new series is “not going to be a fun watch”. It opens with Rue arriving late at her addiction support group, wheeling a suitcase that she doesn’t let out of her sight – as we later discover, that’s because it’s full of drugs.
As the trailer goes on, Rue reminisces about her relationship with Jules Vaughn (Hunter Schafer), Cassie Howard (Sydney Sweeney) gets picked on by the other girls, and everything descends into chaos: there’s a police chase, what looks like a kidnapping, and lots of guns.
The filming of Euphoria season two originally began in March 2020, but – like everything else – was delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. To satiate fans’ appetites, the producers dropped a two-episode Christmas special in December last year.
