HBO has confirmed that Euphoria will return for a third season and go back in to production in 2025.
The network has shutdown recent claims that the hit drama series — which stars the likes of Zendaya, Maude Apatow, Jacob Elordi and Sydney Sweeney — could be canceled, amid rumors that members of the star-studded cast were walking away from the TV show.
On Saturday, a representative for HBO told The Independent: 'Euphoria is going in to production in 2025. Nothing has changed.'
The teen drama series has been a huge hit with fans and critics since it launched in 2019, and its continuation has relieved fans.
Euphoria has also proven to be a career launching pad for several cast members, including Jacob and Sydney, who recently admitted that she loved playing the part of the troubled teen Cassie Howard.

The 27-year-old actress — who has enjoyed a meteoric rise in recent years — also revealed that she couldn't wait to shoot the next season of the hit drama that follows a group of high school students that navigate a world of drugs, sex, trauma and social media.
Sydney previously told PEOPLE: 'I'm very excited to jump back into Cassie. She is definitely one of the most special characters for me and I love my Euphoria family, so I look forward to it.'
The actress also expressed that she thoroughly enjoyed exploring the darker side of her on-screen character, too.
Sydney said: 'I love crazy Cassie, so the crazier, the better for me.'
The blonde beauty has become one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood since appearing in Euphoria, but Sydney is still adjusting to the pressures of fame and success.
She previously told ES Magazine: 'I think I’m still navigating it on a daily basis because I want to be as authentic and genuinely open to the public and my fans as possible. And I think I am.
'I talk a lot, I’m very open and it’ll probably be to my detriment, but I don’t know how people can hide behind an image. At the same time, I don’t owe people answers.'
Earlier last month, Zendaya confirmed that the forthcoming season will see the characters leave high school — as the last season was released in January 2022.
She revealed: 'It's important because there's only so much high school drama you can deal with, and then she cheats on her boyfriend again!'

Though exact details surrounding the upcoming season's plot is being kept under wraps, she also shared that the series will return after a time jump.
'I don't actually know much about what is happening,' the 28-year-old actress said, despite being an executive producer on the series.
'I don't quite know exactly what the season is going to look like, but I do know that the time jump is happening.'
