'Euphoria' Drama: Barbie Ferreira Sets The Record Straight About On-Set Fight
Many fans have been expressing their thoughts over the success of HBO's "Euphoria" over the past few weeks after its finale, but there's also an issue that caught viewers' attention as many reports have claimed that there's an on-set argument that happened between the cast and production.
According to Teen Vogue, the hit drama series has a "toxic" production culture, and a drama embroiled behind closed doors.
Among the claims was Barbie Ferreira, the actress playing Kat on the series, reportedly had a feud with the show's creator and showrunner, Sam Levinson.
Vulture reported that an unknown person sent Deuxmoi a tip that the argument between the two personalities started because of the actress's storyline.
This is the reported reason why Kat Hernandez had less screen time in the second season.
After episodes aired every week, fans expressed their disappointment online about her presence on the show.
Last month, a report by The Daily Beast circulated where an insider claims that Ferreira "walked off set at least two times," leading production to cut another scene from the final output.
Today, the actress spoke out and addressed the rumors first hand in an interview with Insider.
Ferreira began by saying the second season is so interesting to the point that "there are so many more eyes on it that even the news cycle has been so interesting to see."
Although she did not address the specific rumor about the show or herself, the actress noted she saw "many different things and a lot of it is untrue, and some of it it's kind of like mundane little things."
The "New York Minute" star continued by saying fans are passionate, and she appreciated their efforts because their show has impacted its viewers.
She added that there are things that "take on a life of their own" despite it not being accurate, but it's okay for her as it's "just out of passion and curiosity." Since she signed up for it, Ferreira said she would take the good and the bad.
Speaking about the changes in her character on the show's second season, the actress reportedly said she was unaware if there were other storylines written for her.
However, lead star Zendaya, who also serves as an executive producer, previously revealed that there had been changes with the show's original scripts, saying there are many things that remain in the version that fans have been seeing.
In conclusion, if fans never saw it on screen, those "things definitely needed to die."
