Zendaya Warns Fans About 'Euphoria' Season 2
"This season … deals with subject matter that can be triggering and difficult to watch," she wrote on Instagram.
Before the premiere of HBO Max's second season of Euphoria, Zendaya wanted to make sure that fans were aware of its "triggering" material.
The Emmy-winning actress posted a message to Instagram ahead of the season's release, reminding viewers that the show is intended for "mature audiences."

"I know I've said this before, but I do want to reiterate to everyone that Euphoria is for mature audiences," she wrote. "This season, maybe even more so than the last, is deeply emotional and deals with subject matter that can be triggering and difficult to watch. Please only watch it if you feel comfortable. Take care of yourself and know that either way you are still loved and I can still feel your support. All my love, Daya."
Zendaya issued a similar warning to fans in 2019 via another Instagram post.

In Euphoria, Zendaya plays Rue Bennett, a teenager recovering from a drug addiction. For her performance, she took home an Emmy in 2020 for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.
Production on Season 2 was delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic. In Variety's Actors on Actors issue, Zendaya told Mj Rodriguez, "We were supposed to go back to work, I believe, on March 16. And three or four days before that, they were shut down. I can't complain. I'm very lucky to be safe and healthy and still know that I have a job, Euphoria, that will be there. I think all we ever wanted was for people to feel seen through our work. And so that's all I want to continue to do, to show the human side of what addiction does to a person."
