Key Euphoria star reveals she won’t return for season three after time jump twist

A EUPHORIA star has revealed she won't be returning for its third series after a time jump twist.

After a reported string of delays fans were left delighted when the hit drama's return was confirmed.

Series three will jump forward in time, with Zendaya returning to play her fan-favourite character Rue Bennett.

However, Rue's younger sister won't be coming back, as actress Storm Reid confirmed.

Speaking to Rotten Tomatoes, she said: "I am very excited for season 3.

"Unfortunately, Gia's not returning to the third season, but I am so, so indebted to the cast and the crew of that show, to HBO.

"Euphoria's a really special thing, and I'm so glad that that's a part of my legacy and that I was a part of such a cultural phenomenon … I can't wait to see what season 3 has in store."

It was previously revealed how savvy Zendaya renegotiated her contract to secure $1million per episode on the next series.

HBO boss Casey Bloys previously slammed rumours Euphoria had been hit by production delays.

He said: "I think we have a start date, mid to late January.

"Nothing's changed. Somebody said something online, and then this whole thing started.

"We are shooting the season. I have read the scripts. We're happy. We're moving ahead.

"All of the actors are in the show."
