Dominic Fike is a newcomer for season two of Euphoria. He told Variety in August 2021 that his character, Elliot, is a friend of Rue and Jules. "I don't have to do much acting," Fike told the outlet. "He's exactly like me. It's sh*t I would say and shit I would do," also calling his character a "degenerate."
Elliot may even end up coming in between Rue and Jules romantically. This will be the musician's first big role.
