Hans Zimmer joins Euphoria: Season 3's soundtrack is about to go cosmic

Hindustan Times2 days ago
In a twist that has electrified both film and TV fans, Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer has officially joined Euphoria Season 3 — marking a rare venture into episodic television for the musical mastermind behind Inception (2010), Gladiator (2000), and Interstellar (2014). He'll be teaming up with Labrinth, who returns after shaping the show's signature sonic landscape across its first two seasons. Zendaya in Euphoria and Hans Zimmer
'It's an honour to join this incredible team of storytellers led by the visionary Sam Levinson,' Zimmer said in a statement. 'Together, they have crafted such a bold and moving series that has meant so much to audiences. Labrinth's music has shaped the show's identity and I'm looking forward to contributing to the ongoing story and helping shape this new season through music.'
Labrinth, the artist behind unforgettable tracks like I'm Tired and All for Us, is equally thrilled to be collaborating with Zimmer. 'Another chapter in the Euphoria universe! So great to join Hans, one of my heroes in film score, and bring some new magic to this new season. Love x,' he said.
Zimmer's involvement is especially fitting, given that Euphoria creator Sam Levinson has long cited him as an influence. 'It's a true honour to be working alongside Hans. I wrote this season to the score of Interstellar and True Romance. So he's been ingrained in the creative DNA since the beginning,' Levinson shared. 'I'm really proud of the work Labrinth and I have done in previous seasons and am excited for Hans to push us to new heights.'
With production finally underway and a star-studded cast — including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, and newcomers like Sharon Stone and Rosalía — Euphoria Season 3 is aiming for a 2026 release. If the music is any clue, this next chapter will be its most emotionally resonant and cinematic yet.

Christopher Nolan's ‘The Odyssey' Wades Into African Territorial Dispute

(Bloomberg) -- Oscar-winning director Christopher Nolan's upcoming movie is sparking controversy in North Africa, with the decision to shoot some scenes in a long-disputed territory incurring the ire of a rebel group fighting for independence. Nolan, who took home two Academy Awards for Oppenheimer in 2024, has chosen to film parts of The Odyssey in the desert landscape near Dakhla, an Atlantic city in Western Sahara. The area was recognized by US President Donald Trump as coming under Moroccan rule in 2020, opening up a wave of investment, development and tourism. Nolan picked a number of global locations for The Odyssey, a $250 million epic starring Matt Damon as the Greek hero Odysseus alongside a host of other stars including Oscar winners Charlize Theron and Lupita Nyong'o. But the choice of Dakhla may garner the most attention for Universal Studios Inc. after strong criticism from the Polisario Front, an armed group that claims to be the legitimate representative of the indigenous people of Western Sahara. Polisario, based in Algeria and considered by Morocco as a proxy for its larger neighbor and arch rival, accused The Odyssey's makers of whitewashing colonialism and committing 'a clear violation of international law and ethical standards governing cultural and artistic work.' The group abandoned a long-standing ceasefire in 2020, and has previously warned that continued support for Moroccan rule by the US — later joined by France and Spain — would leave it with no choice but to step up its resistance. That said, attacks to date have mainly targeted Moroccan troops hundreds of miles away near the Algerian border. Neither Universal nor representatives for the filmmakers responded to emailed requests for comment. The filming in Dakhla comes within the context of 'a broader and very concerted Moroccan strategy to leverage its economic, political and cultural influence to try and solidify its claim to the territory,' said Hugh Lovatt, a senior policy fellow for the Middle East and North Africa region at the European Council on Foreign Relations. 'There is a sense that the international community is increasingly aligning behind the Moroccan positions.' The dispute over Western Sahara has caught the attention of Hollywood in the past, with Spanish stars Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz expressing concern about human rights violations against the Sahrawi people in the area. One way for Universal and Nolan to avoid negative publicity would be 'to give a voice and agency to the Sahrawis,' Lovatt said. For Morocco, Nolan's arrival is a boost for its push to promote investment and tourism in a region that it sees as a driver of wealth creation for decades to come. 'This is a production that is extremely important for Morocco,' said Reda Benjelloun, who heads CCM, the Moroccan government agency in charge of promoting the film industry. 'It's the first major Hollywood production to choose the southern provinces,' he added, in reference to the disputed territory. Nolan traveled to Dakhla earlier this month, having already filmed parts of The Odyssey in Morrocan locations in Essaouira, Marrakech and Ouarzazate, as well as countries such as Greece and Scotland. Morocco has long been a favored location for Hollywood, from 1962's Lawrence of Arabia to Ridley Scott's Gladiator series. 'This is extremely important for Morocco and the film industry's development goals,' Benjelloun said in a phone interview. 'It establishes Dakhla in the film ecosystem.' --With assistance from Chris Miller. More stories like this are available on

Destiny's Child Reunites Onstage During Beyoncé's Final Las Vegas Cowboy Carter Show; See Here

Destiny's Child reunited onstage during Beyoncé Knowles-Carter's final Cowboy Carter concert at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on July 26. This surprise performance marked a major highlight during the Grammy-winning singer's last U.S. stop on her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour. Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joined Beyoncé onstage to perform throwback hits like Bootylicious and Lose My Breath. The moment came during the final leg of Beyoncé's two-night Vegas concerts and closed out her 32-show stadium tour across the U.S. and Europe. Fans witness Destiny's Child's first public performance in years The trio's reunion thrilled fans, many of whom had hoped to see Destiny's Child back together again. The last time Destiny's Child performed publicly was in 2018, when the group joined Beyoncé onstage at Coachella. Since then, fans have often speculated about a possible reunion. In January 2024, Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles, teased the possibility after revealing that Destiny's Child serenaded her privately for her birthday. Here's what they performed and why it meant so much During the Las Vegas concert, the trio performed their hit songs Bootylicious (2001) and Lose My Breath (2005). Rowland and Williams also joined Beyoncé in her now-famous Mute Challenge from the Renaissance era. Together, they sang the lyrics, 'Just me and my crew, big energy,' creating a memorable moment for longtime fans. The surprise reunion was not only a nostalgic throwback but also a symbolic close to a successful tour. The Cowboy Carter tour, which kicked off in Los Angeles on April 28, featured nine cities across the U.S. and Europe and celebrated a wide range of musical styles, including country, R&B, and pop. Destiny's Child first rose to fame in the late 1990s, featuring Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett, according to USA Today. The lineup eventually became a trio with Williams joining Beyoncé and Rowland. The group officially parted ways in 2006 but remained close.
