Is Alexa Demie Retiring From Acting After Euphoria? She Says…
Warning: This story contains Euphoria spoilers.
Euphoria came to a tragic end on May 31.
The season three finale—which creator Sam Levinson confirmed is also the show’s end—saw Zendaya’s Rue dying of an accidental overdose after she unknowingly took a Percocet laced with fentanyl.
For the actress, the finale marked the end of a major chapter in her life.
“I just want to say thank you,” Zendaya said to the cast and crew in a behind-the-scenes look at the episode. “I’m incredibly grateful for every single one of you, and many of you have been here from the beginning and watched me grow up. It’s been a pleasure and an honor. Thank you so much.”
Meanwhile, Levinson knows the series wouldn’t have been the same without his star, who won two Emmys for her portrayal of Rue.
“Zendaya’s performance has been so wonderful and layered over the course of these seasons,” he said in the post-show look. “We fell in love with this character, this girl who’s flawed, f–ked up, and has a good heart and is trying to do right, at least sometimes.”
