Sydney Sweeney calls herself ‘really vicious’, says it’s ‘kind of psychotic’ how she jumps in character: ‘I feel bad for my co-stars’

Sydney Sweeney talks about her role in Echo Valley

In the newly released Apple TV+ show, Sydney plays the troubled daughter Claire. Julianne Moore stars as her mother. The story revolves around the life of a mother-daughter duo who go to extreme lengths to protect each other after the daughter shows up on the doorstep, soaked in blood. Sydney told Fallon that shooting emotional, violent scenes with Moore was intense. “I, like, jump in and out,” Sydney said when Jimmy asked how she prepared for the role. “It’s kind of psychotic,” she added. “Like, you’re happy and fun, and then…” Jimmy cut in, and Sydney finished the line, “And then they say, ‘Action!’ and I’m screaming and crying. And then they call, ‘Cut!’ and I go, ‘What’s wrong?’” Sydney said she really respects Moore and admires her acting, but realised later just how she may have hurt her verbally during a scene where the two had to argue. “She’s so kind and fun, and just amazing to work with,” Sydney said. “I felt so bad,” she added. “I did. ’Cause I am. I’m vicious. I’m really vicious.”

Sydney Sweeney reacts to leaked photo from Euphoria season 3

While chatting, Jimmy pulled out a leaked photo of Sydney on set, dressed in a wedding gown. The blurry pic has been the talk of the town ever since it leaked from the set. Does Cassie get married? To Nate (played by Jacob Elordi)? Is that even real? Jimmy straight-up asked her. Sydney downplayed it, “I can’t confirm or deny.” With a smirk, she added, “Who knows, that could be AI.” Jimmy laughed it off, “No, it can’t.” Though she did say that she might spill the tea “next time” she’s on the show.

What we do get, though, is that Cassie’s character is going to be messier and a lot crazier. “It’s the favourite version of her. She’s even worse, she’s even worse,” Sydney told Jimmy. In another interview with Empire, the Madame Web star revealed that Euphoria Season 3 is completely “unhinged,” and that she pushed for it. “I have such a spot in my heart for Cassie, and I hold her really close and dear. She is crazy. She makes so many mistakes. She’s flawed on so many levels, but she does it all from a place of love. It could be a sad version of love, as well.” She revealed she personally went to director Sam Levinson and said: “Let’s go crazier. He was all in.”

On the personal front, Sydney reportedly ended her engagement with Jonathan Davino. They got engaged in 2022, but called it off earlier this year.
