Zendaya is giving fans a peek behind the chaos of Euphoria Season 3.

At the premiere of her new film The Drama, the 29-year-old actress told the outlet, “It was like a whirlwind.”

The actress, who’s won two Emmys for her role as Rue, also shared that she’s already seen a small part of the season and hopes it will turn out “beautifully.”

She revealed to Empire magazine, “I have such a spot in my heart for Cassie, and I hold her really close and dear.”

In the meantime, the upcoming Season moves forward five years. The characters Cassie and Nate are now husband and wife living in the suburbs.

The lead of the show Rue is in Mexico dealing with a dangerous debt, however, Jules is at art school, and Maddy is making her way in Hollywood.

Meanwhile, the long-awaited season reintroduces favorite actors Sydney Sweeney, Hunter Schafer, Jacob Elordi, Alexa Demie, and Maude Apatow.

Additionally, Zendaya has a lot of new projects in the works. With The Drama releasing on April 3 and Euphoria on April 12, she also has several other exciting films coming up.
