LARRY SCENE HBO EUPHORIA TV
While Euphoria is a live-action TV series, for the 'Larry Stylinson' fanfic moments it was animated. Response: Tomlinson responded from his verified Twitter account, stating, 'I can categorically say that I was not contacted nor did I approve it' While the 'Larry Stylinson' fan fiction has been around for several years, last night's Euphoria posited that Kat helped start this whole movement. Tomlinson responded from his verified Twitter account, stating, 'I can categorically say that I was not contacted nor did I approve it.' One fan named Hannah said, 'just going to sit and hope that they for some reason approved it because surely they had to to get it aired harry seems quite friendly with the people involved but u can just TELL louis’ not gonna like it.' While Styles has yet to respond on social media, Tomlinson took to social media on Monday morning, revealing to a fan that he did not 'approve it.' And we’re not sure who’s side is in the right here.Last night's episode of Euphoria, Made You Look, offered some background on Barbie Ferreira's character Kat, who was famous online for launching a brand of fan fiction dubbed 'Larry Stylinson,' which imagined One Direction's Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles were gay lovers. Ultimately, a creative way of representing the blossoming sexualities of teens is getting pushback because of the lack of communication. But who knows who would win in that court battle. Though, Euphoria could counter that claim by explaining the point of the scene and stating that the relationship’s depiction is a parody.
Especially considering he’s been so vocal against the gay rumors before. But, the fact that the show didn’t get permission from Harry or Louis before depicting them in such as sexual way is sloppy on the production’s part.įrankly, Louis could have a case here if he did pursue a lawsuit. And let’s be honest, you can bet there were plenty of teens writing up Larry Stylinson fanfiction a few years ago.
We can acknowledge that the writers were simply trying to reflect the truth of how teenagers express themselves online through fan fiction. The idea behind it was a mixture of slightly rough animation and the surrealistic beauty of something like ‘Belladonna of Sadness,’ where you have animated images exploding into other things and there’s an element of surrealism to it,” said Levinson. It’s sort of allowing her wishes to come true. “Something that I thought was a fascinating or exciting idea was to take this burgeoning curiosity about sexuality that’s ultimately framed through the lens of fan fiction and allow it to come to life … It’s sort of what Kat’s dream would be if she could see an animation of one of her stories. That’s something that Producer Sam Levinson wanted to focus on while talking to the L.A. The point of the scene, depicting how fan fiction was/is used by the millennial and Gen Z generations to explore their sexualities and online confidence, was clearly on display the entire time.
Euphoria then takes the scene up a notch by having Zendaya’s character Rue narrating the scene over an animation. Kat is seen writing fanfiction about former One Direction stars Louis and Harry. These two themes were especially poignant during a scene with character Kat Hernandez. Namely, the blossoming sexualities of teenagers and their dual existences online and in real life. Last Sunday’s Euphoria episode, titled “Made You Look,” played with several of the show’s main themes.
