'Euphoria': Nate Jacobs fate explained as death reports go viral

Jacob Elordi, who plays the character of Nate Jacobs, has officially bid farewell to Euphoria in the seventh episode of its third season.

The story took a shocking turn this season after Cassie, portrayed by Sydney Sweeney, married her lover Nate in a glamorous ceremony.

However, things did not turn out to be positive for the characters as it was revealed that the star got embroiled with a loan shark.

They turn out to be extremely dangerous, demanding their sum back. Nate fails at returning it and so was buried in a coffin with a pipe to assist him in breathing by Naz.

He was left with nothing but a rattlesnake which he failed to fight and lost his life as the animal attacks the star. 

This means that Cassie, who was trying to get the money together, is now a widow. On the other hand, Naz was killed by another ganster Alamo who opened fire at him.

The update left streamers shocked as they expressed their disbelief, expecting that he might make it out alive.

What did Jacob Elordi say about his character in Euphoria?

It appears Jacob doesn’t mind the dramatic end of his character as he admitted in an interview that “it was a cool way to go,” describing his role as a person who committed “many mistakes.”

Meanwhile, the Frankenstein star believes that the series is not just his “career” but his “life.”
