Fans react to Sydney Sweeney’s Euphoria Season 3 trailer scenes

The new trailer for Euphoria Season 3 includes a shot of Sydney Sweeney’s Cassie dressed like a baby wearing a pacifier and striking an NSFW pose, supposedly while photos of her are being taken for OnlyFans. In the footage, Cassie expresses her desire for widespread fame, stating, “If more people knew me, I would be huge.”

Fans, repulsed by the shot and Sweeney’s other overtly sexualized scenes, took to social media to express their disgust. “Sorry, but Sydney Sweeney really needs to learn that she also can say ‘no’ once in a while,” a user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). They expressed bafflement about the actress wearing baby attire, adding, “She ruined the whole season.”

Meanwhile, actor O’Shea Jackson Jr. expressed shock. “Yo wtf is that Sydney baby photo…whoa,” he wrote.

Another user stressed that Sweeney had the right to refuse to participate in certain scenes. “Sydney girl, you can say no to scenes,” they shared (via TMZ). One viewer pointed out, “They did Cassie dirty.”

Unlike previous entries, Euphoria Season 3 has garnered mixed-to-negative reception from critics and audiences, reflected in its mediocre Rotten Tomatoes scores of 44% and 58%. These are expected to change once more reviews and audience ratings come in.

The first episode aired on HBO on April 12, 2026, and is currently streaming on HBO Max. New episodes drop weekly on Sundays.

Sam Levinson created the show, based on Ron Leshem’s Israeli teen drama of the same name. In addition to Sweeney, the cast features Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, Maude Apatow, Hunter Schafer, Alexa Demie, and Colman Domingo, among others.
