This Spider-Man 4 Rumor Might Enrage Zendaya’s Euphoria Fans

Rumors should always be taken with a grain of salt, and there are a lot of nebulous details in the InSneider post. For starters, «Spider-Man 4» still has no director. Justin Lin is mentioned as a possibility, but nothing’s locked down. Sony will need a director onboard before a new Spider-Man movie begins filming. Any potential delay in «Spider-Man 4» could also result in a further delay for «Euphoria» if the crew needs to wait for Zendaya to become available. 

One might assume «Euphoria» Season 3 could attempt filming over the spring and summer so that Zendaya is free to film «Spider-Man 4» later. However, the InSneider article states, «[‘Euphoria’ creator Sam] Levinson preferred not to rush into production this spring as he needed more time to write and he’s been taking advantage of it.» More time may be preferable, considering much of the cast outside of Zendaya has seen their popularity rise since the HBO series started. More time may be needed for the likes of Sydney Sweeney, Hunter Schafer, and Jacob Elordi to film new episodes.

«Euphoria» doesn’t require the same level of VFX as a Spider-Man movie, so The InSneider concludes, «Look for Season 3 of Euphoria to begin shooting in early 2025. HBO could maybe get it out before the end of the year … But HBO loves to premiere big shows in January, so the network could always hold it for the top of 2026.» Levinson received backlash from fans for his «Euphoria» Season 3 description as having more noir vibes, so maybe extra time is essential for getting the new episodes just right.
