The star has also featured in 2020 comedy film Unpregnant, a movie made for HBO Max about a teen looking to get an abortion.

Ferreira starred in Vice’s documentary series How to Behave, in which she explores etiquette across cultures.

What is Euphoria about?

We should probably get it out the way that rapper Drake is the mastermind behind this show – well, he acts as a co-producer, so that’s an interesting fact right there alone.

The series itself, however, follows the life of a 17-year-old drug-addict named Rue Bennett, who is played by the ever-so-beautiful Zendaya, who just recently starred in Spider-Man: Far From Home.

She is found by her sister after having suffered an overdose and is therefore sent back to rehab just as the series commences.

Interestingly enough, the facility where she’s staying only ends up teaching her how better to hide her addiction from family and loved ones.

When is Euphoria season 2 released?

Sadly for Euphoria fans, season two won’t be out for a while.

Production of the second series was planned for March 2020, but was halted due to the coronavirus pandemic and has not yet been picked up.

However, it’s not all bad news for fans, since it has been announced that two special “bridge” episodes will air in the gap between series one and the entire second season.

Euphoria season one is available to watch for UK viewers on Now TV and for US viewers on HBO Max.
