Labrinth not part of 'Euphoria' season 3 music, Hans Zimmer takes over

Oscar winner Hans Zimmer will score Euphoria Season 3 alone after Labrinth's exit, confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter.

"he helped shape the show's identity - Hans Zimmer on Labrinth"

Los Angeles, April 10

Singer and composer Labrinth will not be featured on the music for Season 3 of Euphoria, with Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer taking charge of the music on his own, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed.

According to the publication, there were reports earlier that Zimmer and Labrinth would work together for the show. However, speculation grew last month after Labrinth shared a strong message online, where he slammed both the show and his record label. The post was later deleted, but it raised questions about his involvement.

Labrinth had played a big role in shaping the sound of Euphoria in its first two seasons. His music became closely linked with the show's mood and storytelling. Songs like "Forever," "Still Don't Know My Name," and "I Never Felt So Alone," which featured Billie Eilish, were widely loved. The last track also received a Grammy nomination.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hans Zimmer had earlier spoken about working on the series and had praised Labrinth's work, saying that he helped shape the show's identity. Now, Zimmer will handle the music for the upcoming season on his own.

Meanwhile, Labrinth is set to perform at Coachella, while Euphoria Season 3 is gearing up for its release, with a special screening planned at the festival as well.

Honestly, a bit disappointed. The music was one of the best parts of the show. I hope Zimmer can bring something fresh, but it won't be the same. All the best to Labrinth for Coachella though! 🎵

Hans Zimmer taking over is massive! His scores for Inception and Interstellar are iconic. Maybe the show is taking a more cinematic, grand direction for Season 3. Change can be good, yaar.

Respectfully, I think this is a mistake. The deleted post says a lot. It feels like the show is losing its authentic, youthful voice that Labrinth provided. Zimmer is brilliant, but is he the right fit for teen drama?

As a music student, this is fascinating. Zimmer praised Labrinth's work, so he understands the legacy. It will be a masterclass to see how he interprets the show's themes on his own. The soundtrack will still be an event.

Labrinth's music was the soul of Euphoria. It's sad he had a fallout. But Hans Zimmer is a GOAT composer. Maybe the story is maturing and needs a more complex score. Excited but nervous! 🙏
