Barbie Ferreira Broadcasts She Will not Be Returning for HBO’s Euphoria Season 3

“After 4 years of attending to embody essentially the most particular and enigmatic character Kat, I’m having to say a really teary eyed goodbye,” she wrote in her share.

Her message was accompanied by an authentic drawing of “Thunder Package Kat” she described as her “first Kate fan artwork,” created by her cast-mate Hunter Schafer.

“I hope lots of you might see your self in her like I did and that she introduced you pleasure to see her journey into the character she is in the present day,” Ferreira’s message continued. “I put all my care and love into her and I hope you guys may really feel it.”

Studies surfaced in February that the actress and “Euphoria” creator Sam Levinson clashed throughout filming on the present’s second season, with The Day by day Beast reporting Ferreira stormed off the set at one level. Ferreira herself stated these claims weren’t true in an Insider interview a month later.

“Euphoria” grew to become a breakout success in its second season following a critically-acclaimed first 12 months. Season 2 noticed a mean viewership of 16 million when delayed viewing is included, per TheWrap.

Sadly for followers of Ferreira’s Kat, her presence was considerably diminished in Season 2. Her story as a plus-sized highschool pupil looking for her personal energy in her physique — picked on at college with a grown fan-base on-line for fanfic and later as a cam lady — actually linked with followers in Season 1.

Then, she light nearly into the background for Season 2 together with her largest second maybe being when she lied a couple of terminal sickness to get out of a relationship.

One more reason for her departure may should do with a hinted-at time leap from Zendaya’s Rue on the finish of Season 2. It could possibly be that Ferreira is simply the primary main performer on the present to announce her departure (probably after Javon Walton’s Ashtray, although even the actor is hoping an off-screen capturing may imply he survived, per E! Information).

Followers on social media have been each disillusioned and expressed that they weren’t stunned by this announcement, after how Kat’s second season went on the present. Additionally they expressed their frustration with how her character’s total arc progressed.
