In a recent revelation, actor Jacob Elordi opened up about his apprehensions regarding the upcoming third season of the HBO series Euphoria. The Australian actor, best known for his portrayal of teenage football jock Nate Jacobs, expressed concerns about potentially aging out of his character.
While the filming for the highly anticipated third season has not yet commenced, Elordi humorously conveyed his worries during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “I hope filming is soon, otherwise they’re going to have to Benjamin Button me or something. I’m going to have, like, a bad back, walking down the hallway,” he joked, highlighting the potential challenges of portraying a high school character as he continues to grow older.
Elordi also addressed swirling rumors about the upcoming season, expected to premiere in 2025. Speculation suggests a time-jump that would propel the characters from high school to adulthood. “I’m assuming that we’re going to have to go forward. Otherwise, it’s going to seem like a weird bit,” Elordi explained, offering fans a glimpse into the possible narrative trajectory of the series.
In an unexpected twist, Elordi revealed a surprising fan of Euphoria: none other than Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio. “The biggest one is Leonardo DiCaprio. Which sounds like a crazy name-drop and it is a crazy name-drop. He came up to me in a club one time when I was much younger,” Elordi shared, shedding light on a star-studded connection that adds another layer of intrigue to the Euphoria phenomenon.
As fans eagerly await the commencement of filming and the unfolding of the third season, Jacob Elordi’s candid remarks offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the actor’s perspective on the evolving nature of his character and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead for Euphoria.
