Summary
I ’ve been waiting forHunter Schaferto get the take roles she merit since her break onEuphoriafive year ago , and it ’s finally happening with her asterisk turn in the acclaimed revulsion movieCuckoo . While a circumstances of Schafer’sEuphoriaco - asterisk , like Zendaya , Jacob Elordi , and Sydney Sweeney , have been land major motion picture and television set roles leave and right-hand , not everyone on the show has been so golden . Barbie Ferreira had a lot of her scenes hack from Jordan Peele’sNopeand Alexa Demie has n’t been in a feature movie since 2020’sMainstream .
Schafer is one of the finest actor intheEuphoriacast , fetch plenty of depth and nuance to the character of Jules . She even brought some of her own personal experience to the role when she co - wrote the Jules - centric special episode , “ F * * * Anyone Who ’s Not a Sea Blob , ” with Sam Levinson . Schafer should be a immense whizz , but for the most part , she ’s had to patch up for humble voice in films likeKinds of KindnessandThe Hunger Games : The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes . But that ’s all changed with her first asterisk office .
Cuckoo Is Hunter Schafer’s First Leading Role In TV Or Movies
Schafer has been more than deserving of leading roles since her Euphoria breakout
Ever since witness Schafer ’s incredible performance inEuphoria , I ’ve feel that she deserves to be a major starwith leading purpose in motion-picture show and TV shows . But so far , I ’ve been permit down . Schafer has been relegated to supporting function , like Tigris Snow inThe Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes , or even just cameo appearances , like Anna inKinds of Kindness . Even inEuphoria , she ’s technically a support thespian . Jules is essentially a champion of the series – and even gravel her own episode – but Zendaya is the lead and Rue is the lead character .
Despite being a talented and magnetic enough actor to anchor her own projects , Schafer never shoot down a lead role in a flick or TV show – until now . Writer - director Tilman Singer cast Schafer to encounter the lead role of Gretchen inhis repugnance filmCuckoo . Gretchen is a stripling who act in with her don in the German Alps and becomes increasingly disturb by unsettling incident that all seem to lead back to her dad ’s mysterious foreman . Cuckoohas finally given Schafer a fortune to shine in a lead part .
Cuckoo Gives Hunter Schafer A Chance To Show A New Side As A Performer
Schafer gets to show off some range in a horror role
As Schafer ’s first revulsion projection , Cuckoohas given her a chance to flex a snatch more of her range . One of the most badass things about Jules inEuphoriais that she ’s practically dauntless . Even when Nate Jacobs comes at her with a knife , she does n’t panic ; she just out - crazies him in front of everybody . Cuckoohas given Schafer a probability to represent a type who is susceptible to fear and who does cower in the face of danger – and she ’s just as authentic playing a panic-struck fiber as she is take on the unfearing Jules .
And not only doesCuckoogive Schafer a chance to play a scared character in a repugnance setting ; more broadly , it also showcases her ability to anchor a movie as the lead . There ’s a big difference between playing a supporting role in a few picture and carry a whole labor as the headlining star . Schafer was already well - versed in the former , but her widely praised turn inCuckoohas proven that she ’s just as adept at the latter , too .
Schafer has been cat in an unrevealed role in the upcoming miniseriesBlade Runner 2099 .

I Hope Cuckoo Is A Tease Of Hunter Schafer’s Post-Euphoria Career
With any luck, this is just the beginning of Schafer’s movie star career
I really hopeCuckooisn’t an detached incident ; I trust it ’s just the kickoff of Schafer ’s post - Euphoriamovie star calling . I hope it leads to more asterisk character for Schafer , and more opportunity to show other facet of her acting range . After starring in a repulsion movie , she could come out in more horror projects and run up a reputation as a scream poove . She could also leap to other genres and become an action mechanism sub or a clowning principal – her complex , superimposed performance inEuphoriahas demonstrated that she can pretty much do anything .
AlthoughEuphoriaseason 3 is still on the docket for the foreseeable future tense , the doer are all advance in age and it ’s clear that the show is wrapping up . If season 3 does chance , it ’ll likely be the terminal of the series . Hopefully , Cuckoois just the first of many major opportunities forHunter Schaferto newspaper headline notable projects and spread her acting wings .
