Watch: Sydney Sweeney Teases Euphoria Character Cassie Is “Even Worse” in Season 3

Cassie Howard still isn’t feeling very euphoric.

Sydney Sweeney shared some insight into her character's personal journey on the upcoming third season of Euphoria. And when it comes to where Cassie’s mindset stands, the actress didn’t mince her words.

"Cassie is crazy," Sydney told Jimmy Fallon on the June 5 episode of The Tonight Show, before teasing that in the HBO series’ new installment "she’s even worse."

As for whether Cassie’s character arc will include a walk down the aisle, as seen in recently leaked set images? Sydney wasn’t willing to explain the meaning behind the pics, which show her wearing a wedding dress while walking down an aisle featuring the intertwined initials, "C" and "N." (Fans have speculated that the initials stand for Cassie and Nate, her character's love interest in season two, played by Jacob Elordi.) 

"I can't confirm or deny," The White Lotus alum said before joking that the photos, "could be A.I."

Warner Bros. Discovery global streaming chief JB Perrette announced at a tech and media conference in December that the show is expected to return in 2026, according to Variety.

And in addition to Sydney and Jacob, cast members such as Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Alexa Demie, Maude Apatow, Eric Dane, Martha Kelly, Chloe Cherry and Colman Domingo will also reprise their roles in season three, which began production in February. Meanwhile, Super Bowl champion Marshawn Lynch, Rosalía and Sharon Stone will make special appearances on the series.

"There is little more exciting than going to work with this team of thrilling talent," the Basic Instinct actress said in a statement in February. "From the genius of Sam Levinson to the raw sophistication of this profoundly moving cast and tight crew. I am honored to be Euphoric."
