Meanwhile, the Daily Beast surmises that some of Ferreira’s scenes were cut due to her and Levinson’s disagreements. Could she have originally been part of a larger arc that we will never view due to her creative differences with Levinson?
Other reports also hint at tension between Levinson and Ferreira — although other cast members are said to be unhappy with the director’s approach to filming scenes for very long periods of time. But the star has downplayed the drama, telling The Cut about her character, “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. The theme is everyone’s gone a little crazy.”
But Screenrant reports that Ferreira is so upset about her role on “Euphoria” that she was notably absent from the premiere for season 2, while all of her castmates attended.
