In a shocking development, HBO's Euphoria Season 3 has killed off a major character, Nate Jacobs, played by Jacob Elordi. In the May 24 episode, Nate finds himself buried alive in a coffin, left to suffocate for 72 hours while his wife, Cassie (Sydney Sweeney), attempts to gather the money needed to save him. Unfortunately, she arrives too late, and Nate dies from multiple rattlesnake bites after a snake slips into the coffin. Elordi described Nate's demise as a 'cool way to go,' reflecting on the character's complex journey filled with mistakes and dark choices. The series, which follows Rue (Zendaya) as she navigates sobriety and the challenges of young adulthood, is nearing its conclusion, with the finale scheduled for May 31, 2026. Euphoria has garnered acclaim for its raw portrayal of mental illness, toxic relationships, and sexuality, propelling its cast, including Hunter Schafer and Alexa Demie, into the spotlight.
