The actress played Kat for two seasons on the hit HBO drama, which returned with Season 3 last week.

"It's not that I don't care about it, it's just been four years since I've been on it. So for me, I have moved on with my career," Ferreira said in a video interview Tuesday from Los Angeles.

The actress departed "Euphoria" in 2022 later saying she didn't feel like the plan for her character was fully fleshed out. 

She says she would "totally watch" this season, in which the drama continues after a five-year time jump, with the characters' high school days behind them and the drama continuing into young adulthood.

"It's not something that I have like a vested interest in, to know every detail about it," Ferreira said.

"But I am really proud of the girls, I always will support them, they're amazing, and I really am excited to see what they do," she said of her former co-stars, who include Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney and Hunter Schafer.

The New York-born star has turned her attention to promoting "Mile End Kicks," which opens in theatres Friday and is directed by Toronto's Chandler Levack. The film is nominated for seven ºÃÉ«tv Screen Awards, including original screenplay and performance in a supporting role for Devon Bostick. 

However, this year the Screen Awards' new rules restrict prizes to ºÃÉ«tv citizens and permanent residents, which meant Ferreira was not eligible for a nomination. 

"I think it's totally cool. I feel like, you know, American award shows put people in subcategories all the time. So Canada, you do what you gotta do. I'm so proud of Devon and Chandler, because they really deserve it," Ferreira said while expressing that she felt like a fake ºÃÉ«tv, trying to learn the accent — which she took very seriously.

"I did a lot of dialect coaching for my very slight accent. My extremely slight accent, I like spent months being, like, 'about,'  'sorry,' ... trying to, you know, make my accent a little bit more authentic."

That authenticity is important to Ferreira both in her career and real life. 

"I think being in showbiz is the only place that people accept this personality. As a kid, I struggled to find friends because I was bringing like a Severus Snape cut out to school, you know, and doing bits all day," Ferreira said, referencing the Harry Potter character. 

Growing up in New Jersey as an only child Ferreira said she was a jokester.

"I used to be really ashamed of being like, I always would wish that I would be more mysterious and quiet. Now I'm almost 30, I'm like, it ain't gonna happen, baby. That ship has sailed. It ain't gonna happen."

"Mile End Kicks" takes us back to 2011 with a fashion time capsule of skinny jeans and side bangs. Ferreira joked that in Los Angeles those trends are back with "the only difference is they got the Rick Owens boots on."

For the role, Ferreira transforms into music critic Grace Pine who's taking on the indie-music scene, looking for summer hookups and writing a book about the influence of Alanis Morissette's album "Jagged Little Pill."

In real life, the actress says she loves Alanis but is a huge Lana Del Ray stan.

"I do have a PhD in Lana studies," she joked.

"I could write a really long-ass book about Lana, 'War and Peace' style ... I don't think we should meet. I think, you know, I'm too much of a fan. I got a tattoo of your lyrics on my body. It's just weird."

Ferreira's co-star Devon Bostick, who plays Archie — a guitarist in the Montreal band "Bone Patrol" who falls for Ferreira's character Grace — said he would pick another famed musician to write about, Avril Lavigne.

"She was the first to kind of do it at such a young age and was like a huge influence. I feel she kind of like popped off really early,"
Bostick said.

Lavigne is a part of the "Mile End Kicks" soundtrack, covering Morissette's "Ironic."

"She started so much for the next generation of pop stars. I don't know that we would have Bieber without Avril. Is that controversial? Maybe that's wrong? I shouldn't say that, retract that," Bostick laughed, not wanting to anger any Beliebers.
