Barbie Ferreira [1] noticeably had a diluted plot [2] and very few lines of dialogue in season two of "Euphoria [3]," which fans have attributed to being a result of an alleged feud with director Sam Levinson. In the February cover story of The Cut [4] featuring all the leading women of "Euphoria [5]," Ferreira was asked about reports that she argued with Levinson on set regarding her character's scaled-back presence. "Kat's journey this season is a little more internal and a little mysterious to the audience. She is secretly going through a lot of existential crises. She loses her marbles a little bit — just like everyone else in this season," she said in response.
A few days after The Cut's article, The Daily Beast [6] said production sources confirmed Ferreira walked off set at least twice and that a sex scene she filmed was cut from the final version. In January, the 25-year-old model also didn't attend the "Euphoria [7]" season two premiere [8], adding fuel to the rumours.
Ferreira addressed the alleged friction on set in a new interview with Insider [9] on 3 March. "I've seen so many different things, and a lot of it is untrue, and some of it's kind of like mundane little things," she said. "Sometimes, things take on a life of their own, and they're not rooted in the truth, but it's OK because I know it's just out of passion and out of curiosity and all that good stuff." Hopefully, "Euphoria" fans will see more of Ferreira's character, Kat, in season three [10] of the HBO teen drama.
