Sporting a chic white crop top paired with grey sweatpants, 25-year-old Sydney Sweeney, the star of Euphoria, never fails to turn heads. Wandering around the film set, script in hand, Sweeney added a touch of glamour to her casual look, accessorizing with a leather tote bag and sneakers.
Security guards and staff protected the young star with large umbrellas, ensuring prying eyes were kept at a distance.
Later, the actress was spotted in a white button-down shirt and blue jeans mingling with fans and exchanging autographs with her fellow co-star Glenn Powell.
Sweeney is currently filming an untitled romantic comedy in and around Sydney and NSW. The film, directed by Gluck, who is known for his work on popular comedies like Easy A and Friends With Benefits, also features Bryan Brown, Michelle Hurd, Hadley Robinson, and Darren Barnet. As of now, the plotline of the R-rated movie remains a mystery.
The film is forecasted to infuse AUD $41 million into the local NSW economy and open up 440 jobs for cast and crew members. Gluck, who has had previous successful experiences filming the Peter Rabbit movies in Australia, expressed his enthusiasm about showcasing Sydney’s beauty in this upcoming project.
Aside from this yet-to-be-released project, Sweeney is also known for her racy role in the popular teen series Euphoria and is currently on a promotion spree for her latest film, Reality.
Reality depicts the real-life events surrounding the woman named Reality Winner in 2017. A former Air Force linguist, Winner was ambushed by the FBI at her Georgia residence and charged with leaking evidence of Russian interference in the U.S presidential elections to The Intercept, an online whistleblower site. Winner was sentenced to the longest federal sentence for the unauthorized release of government information to the media, at five years and three months.
The tense atmosphere of a single 90-minute home interrogation scenario forms the crux of the film’s plot.
In a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Sweeney discussed how she experienced the gravity of her role as she portrayed Reality. She felt the importance of infusing deeper meaning into every word and moment shared between the characters, and she filled in significant portions of the character’s life prior to the depicted event.
So, when audiences meet her onscreen, they meet Reality and gain a sense of her life, origins, and mental state as she attempts to converse with the FBI agents. The film, directed by Tina Satter, replicates the real-life interrogation of Reality Winner which is also the plot of her Broadway play, Is This A Room.
