Rumors are nothing new at Euphoria High. They circulate like texts at 3 am, half-truths passed between lockers, Instagram stories, and group chats that always know more than they should. In a show where everyone is lying to themselves and everyone else, gossip is part of the plot. So when a new name starts trending in the Euphoria universe, fans pay attention. And the latest one? Tate McRae.

The pop star has suddenly been linked to Season 3, with social media claiming she is joining the cast. But is this actually real, or just another rumor that sounds too good not to believe?

As of now, there is no official news confirming or even credibly reporting that Tate McRae will appear in Euphoria Season 3. Neither HBO, the show’s creators, nor major entertainment trade outlets have made any announcement linking the singer to the series in any capacity.

The rumor appears to have originated from a fan account on X called @positionshour, which posted:

“Tate McRae will be joining the cast of ‘Euphoria’ Season 3, out in April.”

While the post instantly went viral and sent fans spiraling, the claim remains unverified and unsupported by reliable sources, making it far from the truth for now.

That said, Tate McRae hardly needs Euphoria to stay in the spotlight. The Canadian pop star is best known for hits like ‘you broke me first’, ‘greedy’, and ‘exes’, and she has continued to dominate global charts. In fact, Tate McRae is ranked No. 7 on Billboard’s Greatest Pop Stars of 2025, according to Billboard Canada. While 2025 pop has been largely led by established A-listers with already-minted legacies, McRae danced her way into their ranks, building her own legacy in real time.

Is 'Euphoria' Season 3 Replacing Actors After Time Skip? Sydney Sweeney, Zendaya, and the Cast Explained

While Tate McRae may not be entering the Euphoria universe, the real cast lineup for Season 3 is already stacked enough to fuel plenty of excitement.

If Euphoria sticks to its own rhythm, nothing will feel resolved. Yet Season 3, is expected to be the final season, as it boasts several impressive new cast members joining the show’s core ensemble. Spanish pop megastar Rosalía is confirmed to make an appearance, marking her first major acting role in a high-profile TV drama.

Alongside Rosalía, other new cast members include Australian actor Toby Wallace, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Kadeem Hardison, Priscilla Delgado, James Landry Hébert, Darrell Britt-Gibson, and Anna Van Patten. 

Most of the original cast is also set to return, including Zendaya as Rue Bennett, Hunter Schafer as Jules Vaughn, Jacob Elordi as Nate Jacobs, Alexa Demie as Maddy Perez, Sydney Sweeney as Cassie Howard, and Maude Apatow as Lexi Howard., ahead of the April 12, 2026 release date.

For now, Tate McRae joining Euphoria remains just another rumor in a show built on illusions and half-truths.
