    Fans have questioned the tone of the upcoming third season of Euphoria after a new teaser trailer showed Sydney Sweeney‘s Cassie in a series of highly sexualised “humiliating” outfits.

    While the first season of the hit HBO show was widely praised for its subversive take on the conventional teen high-school drama, many of the reviews of the newest season – which features a five-year time jump from the last – have questioned its sudden emphasis on sex work, with central storylines revolving around strip clubs, sugar babies and OnlyFans.

    It’s the latter that has shocked fans, after a new trailer was shared ahead of tonight’s (April 12) premiere, in which Sweeney is dressed as a baby, with pigtails and a dummy in her mouth, seemingly shooting explicit content.

    This followed previous clips that saw her posing as a dog on a leash, another point of contention for fans and critics, many of whom have argued it’s an extension of the hyper-sexualisation of Sweeney, who had previously asked show creator Sam Levison to cut nude scenes from season two.

    “Nothing about this is even remotely amusing or entertaining enough to watch considering the current political/social climate that has forever sexualized babies,” wrote one X user, while others reasoned her arc was meant to be a “cautionary tale” and did not endorse her actions.
