Let’s put aside the American Eagle Jeans ad controversy, as Sydney Sweeney is back in the headlines after she revealed the reason for her relentless work schedule. The actress, 27, says in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that,

“What I was talking about is that I didn’t have time to take six months off. I was so busy, and still, the same. But I do that because I don’t want to take six months off. I get anxiety thinking about just taking a few days off.”

She quipped this after being asked if she still feels that she can’t take a break from the projects she has been continuously working on, including the new season of Euphoria. Sweeney has been busy ever since she was 12 years old. She fears taking time off from the hustle and loves being on sets. Let’s dive a bit more into her lifestyle and the upcoming projects where her fans can see her act her heart out.

Sydney Sweeney as Cassie Howard in Euphoria doesn’t just play her. Cassie is the one who launched Sweeney in Hollywood. In hindsight, Sweeney’s ambition mirrors the intense emotional journey of her character.

In the role of Cassie Howard, Sweeney has navigated a complex and emotional arc, from being a sweet, naive teenager to a character whose desperation for love leads to chaos, betrayal, and an ultimate breakdown.

Sydney Sweeney’s drive to work stems from her struggles from her earlier childhood days. In the interview with WSJ, she quipped that the financial crisis in her life led her parents to divorce and file for bankruptcy.

Sweeney’s earnings as Cassie Howard made $350,000 for Season 1 of Euphoria in 2019, which equated to around $44,000 per episode for eight episodes, according to US Weekly. This marks her as one of the highest-paid actors alongside her fellow castmates, Zendaya and Jacob Elordi.

Therefore, as Sydney Sweeney says, “I’m a perfectionist, but I like to embrace imperfections when it comes to art” — this statement lays the foundation of her immaculate acting skills and her uninterrupted grit to showcase her talent pool to the world.
