Ahead of the announcement, Zendaya had teased bridge Euphoria episodes back in August in an interview with celebrity host Jimmy Kimmel on his popular talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! Spilling the beans about the highly-anticipated season 2 of the hit TV show, Zendaya stated that the makers were trying to figure out how to go about the following season of Euphoria and be proud of it by still being safe. The Spider-Man: Homecoming actor had added saying they might end up coming up with a bridge episode before Season 2.

She continued saying they were planning to shoot an episode with a limited amount of people, keeping in mind their safety in the current times of the on-going COVID-19 pandemic. However, although Euphoria was renewed for Season 2 in July last year, the production was halted due to the global pandemic. Meanwhile, not so long ago, Zendaya became the youngest female actor ever to have won the Primetime Emmy Award in the category of 'Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series' for her exemplary performance in Euphoria.
