Euphoria Emmy wins: How many Emmys does Euphoria have and for what?
By Cody Schultz
From the moment Euphoria first debuted on HBO back in 2020, it was clear HBO had found something truly special in its Zendaya-led drama.
The series offers up a look at life for a group of high schoolers as they navigate high school life and with issues of drugs, sex and violence. In addition to Zendaya, the series features an amazing ensemble that includes Hunter Schafer, Angus Cloud, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Barbie Ferreira, Maude Apatow, Alexa Demie, Javon Walton with Nika King, Eric Dane, Storm Reid and Austin Abrams also starring.
Euphoria has quickly proven to be a powerhouse at the Emmys, taking home several Emmys in its first two seasons alone — with no signs of slowing down!
