New horror flick
Sweeney: “Keep trying to prove myself”
US actress Sydney Sweeney continues to seek recognition as a woman in Hollywood, even after roles in series such as "Euphoria" or "The White Lotus". "People still say to me: 'Can she act?", the 28-year-old told the US magazine "Variety".
"Look at 'Reality', 'White Lotus', 'Euphoria', 'Sharp Objects', 'Handmaid's Tale' - but okay, I'll keep trying to prove myself and hope that one day I'll be cast with a great director and make a movie that people will recognize," she said.
"It's much easier as aman"
There are more actresses than actors in the film industry, which is why the competition is greater for her, Sweeney explained. "But as a man, it's much easier to make a movie that does really well, and then you can get offered any movie you want," she says.
Sweeney also addressed a "strange relationship" that the public has with her, "which I have no control over and have no influence over". "People feel connected and free to talk about me however they want." They would believe that she is "no longer on a human level" because she is an actress.
Sweeney plays in horror flick
The 26-year-old's latest project will be released in cinemas in April: The horror film "Immaculate". In the film, Sweeney plays Cecilia, an American nun who arrives at an Italian convent in the hope of finding safety and solace there.
The apparent miracle of her becoming pregnant shortly afterwards - a 21st century answer to the Virgin Mary - quickly turns sinister as Cecilia's body and faith quickly turn against her. The actress herself also reached her mental and physical limits during the shoot, as she revealed to Variety.
