Hunter Schafer Talks Adjusting to Unexpected ‘Euphoria’ Fame

When Hunter Schafer was cast in Euphoria, she had no idea how much the very fabric of her life would change. In fact, when she learned she’d booked the role of Jules Vaughn, the show hadn’t even been picked up for a season order. Instead, the cast and crew focused all their energy on making the best pilot they could in the hopes that HBO would order more episodes. To say that they were successful would be a gross understatement. To date, Euphoria has become one of HBO’s most successful shows of all time, drawing in millions of viewers. But how has Schafer adjusted to the overnight fame that the show has brought her?

How did Hunter Schafer earn a spot in the ‘Euphoria’ cast?

Prior to joining the Euphoria cast, Schafer was making a name for herself as a model and accruing quite a bit of success. In fact, it was through her modeling agency that she learned about the role of Jules. Having had no previous acting experience at the time, the 24-year-old was hardly looking to break into that sector of the entertainment industry. But when the opportunity came about, she went for it.
