Series creator Sam Levinson made the announcement of the show's return in London at an HBO event hosted on Wednesday. He teased some of the show's most anticipated storylines: “Five years felt like a natural place because if they’d gone to college they’d be out of college at that time,” he said, according to Variety. “We basically pick up Rue [Zendaya] south of the border in Mexico, in debt to Laurie [Kelly], trying to come up with some very innovative ways to pay it off.”

“I feel strongly this is our best season yet… I will say that Cassie and Nate do in fact get married. I’m confirming it. And I promise that it will be an unforgettable night.”
Levinson also teased the futures of the characters of Schafer, who's going to art school, and Demie, who's working in Hollywood. One of the show's most exciting additions is that of Sharon Stone, who plays a showrunner and the boss of Apatow's character, Lexi. He described the actress as "absolutely delightful and a true icon.”
