Euphoria's Special Episodes Part 2 On Jules Gets Release Date!
The second part of the special Euphoria episodes now has a premiere date!
It was just announced that part two will center on Jules, and it was co-written and co-produced by Hunter Schafer herself.
“F*ck Anyone Who’s Not A Sea Blob,†follows Jules (Schafer) over the Christmas holiday as she reflects on the year.
Series creator Sam Levinson, who directed and co-wrote the episode, recently opened up about working with Hunter on part two.
“I’ve been writing a movie with Hunter, which I’m very excited about, so we talk pretty often. And I called her up to get her thoughts on this episode,” he told GQ. “Several hours later, we were talking and she said something that was based on a poem she had written when she was sixteen about the ocean and its femininity and strength. And I said, ‘Well, this ought to be actual dialogue. Do you want to just write this thing together?’ Four days later, we had a draft of the episode that we co-wrote.”
“I always imagined these episodes as a two-part piece focusing on Rue and Jules separately. And there was some point in time in which I read that the character of Jules was trending on Twitter because people were debating whether she was a villain or not,” Sam added. “The idea that people could watch the show and walk away feeling that she was a villain was so appalling to me that I thought, ‘I’m gonna write an episode that forces the audience to look at the world through her eyes and understand the burden of loving an addict.’â€
Euphoria part two will premiere on HBO and HBO Max on January 24th. If it’s like part one, it might come out a couple of days early on HBO Max!
