A casting director told Euphoria's Sydney Sweeney that she would 'never be on TV' because she didn't have the 'proper' appearance. The 24-year-old is currently starring as Cassie Howard in the second season of the hit teen drama Euphoria, which also stars Zendaya and has been nominated for nine Emmys.
She admitted in an interview with British GQ that now that she's renowned, she can shrug off the horrible comment. "Now I'm on some of the biggest TV shows in the world," she claimed, according to the Daily Mail. Sweeney did not go into detail or name names, but she did recall a time when a mother tried to educate her on the value of being loved. "I'm a really energetic individual."
I am injured. I get bruises all the time. Sweeney explained, "I get cuts." "I suppose I came back from laser tag with rug burns all over my legs because I got so caught up in it." And mother sat me on the counter and told me that if I have markings on my body, no boy will ever love me. "Well, I guess I'll just have to love myself," I informed her.
The actress, who has been in programmes like The White Lotus and Everything Sucks!, has started her own production company, Fifty-Fifty Films. Interestingly, at the age of 21, the actress landed a small role on Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale before going on to roles on Sharp Objects.
She also said that she didn't always live the great Hollywood lifestyle, joking that her family was like "the poor version of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody."
