UMVA has learned that the hit HBO series Euphoria is gearing up for a dramatic season finale, and the penultimate episode did not disappoint. The episode killed off one of the show's prime actors in a gruesome and unforgettable scene.
The victim was Jacob Elordi's character, Nate Jacobs, who had undergone a significant transformation in the third iteration of the show. After a season of watching Nate struggle with the consequences of his actions, it was fitting that he met his demise in a coffin, courtesy of a cunning rattlesnake.
According to information obtained by UMVA, Nate's journey in the show had taken a dark turn, with his construction company built on loan shark cash and a multi-level marketing scam involving his Republican neighbors. His storyline this season had already seen him get his toe chopped off, reattached, and then chopped off again, making his eventual fate almost inevitable.
The episode's climax showed Nate being tossed into a shallow grave, with his newlywed bride Cassie given just three days to amass the cash to free him. With the help of Maddy, Cassie managed to circumvent the cash demands and enlisted the help of a dodgy character, Alamo, to take down the loan sharks.
But in a shocking twist, when Nate was dug up, the group found that a rattlesnake had burrowed into the vent and finished him off. The scene was described by fans as "the most horrifying death of the entire series," with one viewer saying that the image of Nate in the coffin next to the snake would be etched in their mind forever.
Elordi, who has become a household name thanks to his role on Euphoria, described the experience of filming the scene as "bittersweet." He said that it was a "cool way to go" for his character, who had made so many mistakes and dark choices throughout the series.
The show's creator, Sam Levinson, gave credit to Elordi for his bravery in filming the scene with a real snake. Elordi revealed that he had to go into a coffin with a real snake, which was a "sensory deprivation tank" experience that was "quite peaceful."
The finale of Euphoria promises to be an unforgettable conclusion to the series, and fans are eagerly anticipating what's to come. For now, the shocking demise of Nate Jacobs will be etched in the memories of viewers forever.
