New on HBO Max April 12: Euphoria (Season 3)
After a four-year hiatus, Euphoria returns to explore the lives of East Highland’s students, now four years older. Season three delves into the challenges of adulthood faced by Rue (Zendaya), Lexi (Maude Apatow), Cassie (Sydney Sweeney), and their peers. Although some familiar faces like Barbie Ferreira and Javon “Wanna” Walton won’t be returning, the new season will feature guest appearances by stars such as Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, Sharon Stone, and Natasha Lyonne.
Thrash, a Netflix thriller starring Phoebe Dynevor, Whitney Peak, and Djimon Hounsou, initially appears as a disaster film about a town inundated by a severe storm. However, the plot thickens when sharks emerge amidst the floodwaters. This gripping movie is now available to stream on Netflix.
It’s been four years since we last caught up with the students from East Highland in Euphoria, and a lot has changed. Season three of the HBO show picks up four years into the future with Rue (Zendaya), Lexi (Maude Apatow), Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) and the rest of their former classmates navigating adulthood anxieties. The new season some cast members including Barbie Ferreira and Javon “Wanna” Walton, are not returning, but a laundry list of guest stars, including Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, Sharon Stone and Natasha Lyonne, will appear.
New on Netflix April 10: Thrash
