Euphoria‘s series finale introduced a potential romantic between Maddy and Bishop — but did they actually get together?
Darrell Britt-Gibson was asked about his character Bishop offering to give Maddy (Alexa Demie) a ride home during the Sunday, May 31, episode, to which he told Decider, “You know, I interpret it in a lot of different ways. I have my ideas.”
The actor opted not to share his interpretation.
“I actually know what [it is] — I love that it now belongs to fans,” he shared. “You know, they have invested so much time, so much energy, so much love into this show, and I love that they get to have it and it gets to be theirs, and whatever they want it to be.”
Britt-Gibson continued: “Even though I know, I love that it gets to be theirs, and I love them to be able to have that.”
After playing Alamo’s (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) fixer throughout the season, Bishop had his hero moment during the finale. The show ended with Ali (Colman Domingo) coming into the Silver Slipper to avenge Rue’s (Zendaya) death. He held Alamo at gunpoint before they agreed to a Western-style showdown.
Alamo’s plan failed because when he drew his gun, it misfired. He realized Bishop secretly unloaded the gun so there wouldn’t be any bullets.
“Bishop didn’t agree with a lot of what Alamo did, but it was a job for him,” Britt-Gibson told Variety. “I think what Alamo did to Rue was the final straw for Bishop.”
Britt-Gibson explained how Rue’s death affected Bishop, adding, “He’s also having that conversation with Maddy in the car. Rue was a bridge too far, and he’s like, ‘I promise I’m not going to let you get to Maddy.’”
Viewers were left confused by why Bishop betrayed Alamo in Euphoria‘s series finale. During the Sunday, May 31, episode of the HBO show, Ali (Colman Domingo) came into the Silver Slipper to avenge Rue’s (Zendaya) death. He held Alamo (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) at gunpoint before they agreed to a Western-style showdown. But when Alamo drew his […]
Elsewhere in the interview, Britt-Gibson spoke out about how he saw Bishop as on the autism spectrum.
“I don’t think Black people get to play that enough,” Britt-Gibson, 39, told Variety on Monday, June 1. “I don’t like the way that people who are on the spectrum are spoken about.”
Britt-Gibson wanted to offer accurate representation, adding, “There are a lot of people in my life and my family who are on the spectrum, and they are the most beautiful, deep, soulful people.”
He continued: “I thought, ‘If I get to do this and play him like that, I want to be able to do it justice and make it thoughtful and layered.’ That was something I inherently thought about. I wanted to give it that care.”
Euphoria is currently streaming on HBO Max.
