In just one week HBO’s Euphoria will return and we will continue to see Rue’s journey in the third season. The trailer dropped back in March and has already set a record for the most views.
According to Deadline, the trailer was able to amass 157M views within 48 hours. This made the trailer the most watched returning trailer in HBO history. This isn’t the first time an HBO trailer was able to rack up huge amount of views.

Back in 2019 the trailer for the final season of Game of Thrones was historically known for having 81M views in just one day.

For the third season we will see a time skip set several years after the main characters have graduated high school. The trailer shows glimpses of many of the returning characters and what’s in store for them when it comes to the third season.
