Judd Apatow Gives His Euphoria Season 2 Review
Judd Apatow has shared his official review of Euphoria season 2. The director, who previously created the cult TV series Freaks and Geeks and directed films including Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin, is currently promoting his new film The Bubble. The movie, which dropped on Netflix today, is about the cast and crew of the fictional film Cliff Beasts 6 attempting to get their movie made while struggling with COVID restrictions. The massive ensemble cast includes David Duchovny, Karen Gillan, Fred Armisen, Keegan-Michael Key, Leslie Mann, Kate McKinnon, Pedro Pascal, Peter Serafinowicz, Maria Bakalova, and Judd and Leslie's daughter Iris Apatow as a TikTok influencer.

Maude Apatow plays the character Lexi Howard, who grew up with Zendaya's character Rue. Lexi is also the sister of another major character, Sydney Sweeney's Cassie. In the epic finale of Euphoria season 2, Lexi put on a much-memed play inspired by the lives of the characters on the show.
