Production wrapped in November in Los Angeles, where the series was shot thanks in part to a $19.4M California tax credit.

"Euphoria" returns four years after the show’s Season 2 run and is expected to be the conclusion of the series.

Season 3 of the show was shot on a new Kodak motion picture film stock in both 35mm and 65mm.

Levinson and Marcell Rév collaborated closely with the company to commercialize the new stock in each format.

"Euphoria" season 3 is also the first narrative television series to shoot a significant volume of 65mm film, providing for an expanded image on screen which mirrors the characters’ journeys out of high school into the wider, wilder world, according to HBO.

"Euphoria" is created, written, directed and executive produced by Sam Levinson. Ashley Levinson, Sara E. White, Kevin Turen, Ravi Nandan, Drake, Adel “Future” Nur, Ron Leshem, Daphna Levin, Hadas Mozes Lichtenstein, Mirit Toovi, Tmira Yardeni, Yoram Mokady, and Gary Lennon also EP.

The series is based on the Israeli series of the same name that was created by Leshem and Levin.
