Hans Zimmer to score Euphoria season 3 alongside Labrinth

Hans Zimmer will join Labrinth to compose the soundtrack for Season 3 of HBO's Euphoria, currently in production.

Euphoria is a drama that follows high school students dealing with love, friendship, identity and addiction. The show stars Zendaya as Rue, a teenage drug addict, and is known for its intense portrayal of its themes and striking, neon visuals.

Musician behind the 2012 hit 'Earthquake', Labrinth has scored the series since its debut in 2019, with tracks 'Still Don't Know My Name' and 'Forever' becoming a viral mainstay across social media platforms.

Oscar-winning composer Zimmer is known for his work on major blockbusters such as Interstellar, The Dark Knight trilogy, Gladiator, Inception and Disney’s 1994 animated film The Lion King.

Most recently, he won the Oscar for Best Original Score in 2022 for Dune and was nominated again this year for Dune: Part Two.

In a statement shared via Euphoria's Instagram, Zimmer said: “It’s an honour to join this incredible team of storytellers led by the visionary Sam Levinson. Together, they have crafted such a bold and moving series that has meant so much to audiences. Labrinth’s music has shaped the show’s identity, and I’m looking forward to contributing to the ongoing story and helping shape this new season through music.”

Show creator Sam Levinson added, “It’s a true honour to be working alongside Hans. I wrote this season to the score of Interstellar and True Romance. So he's been ingrained in the creative DNA since the beginning. I’m really proud of the work Labrinth and I have done in previous seasons and am excited for Hans to push us to new heights.”

Season 3 of Euphoria is expected to premiere in 2026.

HBO had previously slated the release for 2025, but Warner Bros. Discovery has since confirmed a delay, with filming having begun in February this year.
