When it comes to pushing creative boundaries, both Euphoria and Sydney Sweeney take the cake without much competition. The bold, visually striking show starring the actress enjoys chart-topping popularity courtesy of its raw portrayal of youth, addiction, and desire; however, these themes do not exactly make for a family-friendly offering. Reportedly, the actress's father and grandfather ended up being placed among the same set of audience members as they could not embrace the unfiltered role played by their girl.

For Sydney Sweeney’s family, the Euphoria watch party turned into a moment they will never forget.

Sydney Sweeney, who got her big break as Cassie Howard in HBO’s hit teen drama Euphoria, in a 2023 interview with Sunday Today, discussed how some of her family members reacted to her R-rated scenes in the offering. The actress revealed that while her mother had a heads-up about the contents of the show, her father and grandfather did not, and therefore they ended up being surprised in the worst possible way when they tuned in to watch it. “I did not prepare my dad at all,” the actress said, before divulging how he sat down with his parents for an Euphoria viewing. “My dad and my grandpa turned it off and walked out,” Sweeney further revealed.

About her grandmother’s reaction to Euphoria, though, Sweeney suggested she finished what she committed to and is a big “supporter” of her work, and therefore, she ends up being invited to all of her sets alongside her mother. It is not that her father and grandfather are any less supportive of her career, as Sweeney revealed in a 2023 interview with Variety, how extremely proud they are of her achievements, which also, for the record, includes selling a soap made of her bathwater. Meanwhile, Euphoria season 3 finally has fans excited after its fate was up in the air for too long.

Whispers, delays, and casting clues — everything known so far about Euphoria. 

The cast of Euphoria is back in action as 2025 kicked off with the news of the long-anticipated third season of the show finally going on the floor. According to a June 2025 report by Elle, filming for Euphoria season 3 commenced in Los Angeles earlier this year, with HBO now looking to lock in a 2026 premiere for the gig. Regarding what the forthcoming installment will be about, Deadline reports that it will feature a time-lapse, removing its characters from the high school setting. 

Fans also wonder if Euphoria season 3 will be the finale chapter. While no official confirmation has been made about the same, in an interview with the aforementioned outlet published this February, HBO’s Head of Drama Francesca Orsi shared that the Euphoria team has been talking about the same. “I do not think anything is over until it is over,” she, however, said, before cautiously adding that fans, regardless, will be happy with how this season concludes. Well, whether it marks the end or just a new chapter, it is worth wondering if Sweeney’s family will be up for watching the season after the earlier-mentioned uneventful adventure.
