US actors Danielle Deadwyler, Natasha Lyonne and Eli Roth will join the cast of Euphoria when it returns for its third season next year.

The hugely popular series will be broadcast in the spring of 2026 after a nearly four-year break, broadcaster HBO confirmed on Friday.

The new stars join the previously announced returning cast including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Hunter Schafer and Colman Domingo.

Euphoria follows a group of young students as they navigate issues such as love, friendship, drugs, sex, trauma and social media.

The third season of the Emmy-winning show went into production earlier this year in Los Angeles, and will consist of eight episodes.
