If you've been living under a rock and don't know what Euphoria is, it's an American drama series on HBO that follows a group of high-school students navigating a minefield of drugs, sex, identity, trauma, social media, love and friendship. The series stars Zendeya (as Rue the main character), Jacob Elordi (as Nate Jacobs), Sydney Sweeney (as Cassie Howard), Hunter Schafer (as Jules Vaughn), Dominic Fike (as Elliot) and many more.
