Euphoria 2, the trailer of the series with Zendaya

Euphoria, the revolutionary teen drama, returns to Sky Atlantic with the highly anticipated second season. The episodes are shrouded in total mystery to the point that the images of the various scenes are not yet officially available. Finally, however, cult series with Zendaya has a trailer that anticipates what the Italian public will see simultaneously with the US one on January 10 at 3 (a week later it is the turn of the dubbed version), on Sky Atlantic and streaming on NOW.

In the story the it-girl Zendaya (currently in the hall in the blockbuster of records Spider-Man: no way home) plays Rue, a 17-year-old Californian from East Highland who tries to navigate the urban jungle and the intricate labyrinths of the heart, between loss and addiction.

The trailer kicks off with what looks like a meeting of anonymous addicts, followed by images of Rue by bicycle with a heavy and mysterious suitcase in tow. In the following scenes we talk about pregnancy in high school, we see guns, chases, police raids, drugs for personal use and for dealing and then many screams.

Here it is, life in all its brutal truth, told in eight episodes where feelings try to peep out even in the most toxic and exhausting environment there is.

There is a whispered “I love you”, but what does that mean? At the end of the first season Rue had decided to leave with Jules (Hunter Schafer), the trans girl who at the beginning of the story comes to town and attends her high school. Too bad she then changes her mind: she just can’t leave everything to go on a romantic getaway so she doesn’t leave, but Jules does. At this point anything can happen because it is not known what decisions the two have made during the period of separation.

The fans are no longer of the skin: after the two special episodes dedicated to the two protagonists, nothing has been known about their fate. Apart, of course, some risky hypotheses from the trailer: in the next few episodes Dominic Fike, one of the new signings of the cast, peeps out, and the first images show that he knows Rue and passes her some pills. She is not the only new entry: she will be in excellent company with Minka Kelly and Demetrius ‘Lil Meech’ Flenory Jr. The others are all familiar faces, from Cassie (Sydney Sweeney), grappling with a change of look, to Kat (Barbie Ferreira) , involved in a new relationship, while Maddy (Alexa Demie) looks in the school mirror imagining herself sexy and pregnant.

According to these first images, the tone of the series created by Sam Levinson (and based in part on his teenage addictions) remains dark, mysterious but also engaging, at least as much as Rue singing Frank Sinatra in front of the laptop. No wonder that intensity earned the actress an Emmy for the very first season.

And so the days of the protagonists flow by at an accelerated, frenetic, almost lethal pace … until the countdown arrives with which the trailer wishes everyone Happy Rue Year. Appropriate, isn’t it?
