HBO Teases Massive 2026 Lineup: “Euphoria” Post-High School, New Larry David Project, and Much More

Los Angeles, CA – HBO is giving viewers a tantalizing glimpse of what’s to come in 2026 with a new two-minute promotional spot showcasing a diverse array of returning favorites and highly-anticipated new series. The preview, ostensibly designed to boost subscriptions ahead of the new year, offers first looks at long-awaited returns and exciting new projects.

Among the highlights: “Euphoria” Season 3, which jumps forward in time. Zendaya’s character, Rue, is seen stating the new season takes place “a few years after high school.” The trailer shows fleeting glimpses of stars Zendaya, Maude Apatow, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, and Hunter Schafer, along with an SUV careening across a desert. A new scene shows Zendaya confidently walking into a bar.

The preview also included short clips from the medical drama “The Pitt,” set in Pittsburgh. Olivia Cooke ominously intones in “House of the Dragon”, “Rhaenyra will do what she has to do, and what she has to do will be dire,” and showcases a battalion of knights and a skull burning in a fireplace. The promo also included a spot on the Mel Brooks documentary “Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man!”, and a hilarious teaser for the “Untitled Larry David Project” featuring David in Revolutionary War garb.

HBO is also prepping a slate of new series for 2026, including “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,” DC Studios’ “Lanterns,” “DTF St. Louis,” “Rooster, Half Man, Stuart Fails to Save the Universe,” and “War.” Viewers can also look forward to new seasons of “The Comeback,” “Industry,” “Hacks,” “The Gilded Age” and “Dune: Prophecy.”

The preview has generated significant buzz online, with fans eager to see more from their favorite shows and to learn more about the upcoming HBO slate. The full scope of programming is expected to solidify HBO’s position as a leading provider of high-quality, engaging content.
