Sydney Sweeney is speaking to the rumors about cast drama on the set of Euphoria.
If you don’t know, many of the cast members skyrocketed to stardom with the HBO hit.
Popular stars on the show included Zendaya, Alexa Demie, Jacob Elordi, and Hunter Schafer.
Sydney Sweeney was asked about all the rumors regarding cast drama
Specifically, Vanity Fair asked Sydney, “There was a lot of reporting about the delay between seasons and that the scripts had to be right, is what I understand to be the issue. How do you deal with the noise about cast drama or things like that that were also reported?”
“Well, I mean, we all grew up together on this show, so it’s honestly crazy to watch how much social media and the press spin things,” Sydney responded.
She then seemed to respond to the rumor that perhaps any of their busy schedules might have caused tension.
She continued, “I was in first position to HBO [this means that her commitment to filming Euphoria contractually was above any other commitments]. So the moment they say, ‘Hey, this is the first day of filming,’ I’m legally not allowed to do anything else. So my schedule doesn’t affect the show. And so that was funny to watch everybody spin narratives on it. All of us were in first position, so it wasn’t like any of our schedules were holding it up.”
Sydney Sweeney also revealed how she handles all the press and attention
She said, “I post and then I put my phone away. I also didn’t grow up on social media or electronics. I grew up on a lake, outside. My parents didn’t want me on a phone. And so I love putting my phone away. And I’m just hanging out with my friends, my dog. I play outside. And when I have to be on my phone for work, I’m on my phone.”
Sydney Sweeney was also asked if there was an untrue narrative that she’d like to have corrected
She shared, “I think what’s really hard is—I’m spoken for through journalists. So whatever I say now will be rewritten and posted. The thing is people like headlines and not everybody reads an article, not everyone listens to a podcast. They want the easy clickbait and whatever is the most digestible, most interesting. And that’s all they see and that’s what they run with. And then all of a sudden, crazy things just spin from it. At this point, I think it would be so tiring having to correct everything and everyone. And I am so happy with my life and my coworkers and the characters that I get to play, and that’s what’s important. And the people who are in my innermost circle, my family, they truly know who I am. And if I’m a good person to people who are around me, then that’s what matters.”
There were a lot of reports of tensions behind the scenes regarding Zendaya and one other person
Ahead of filming for season three, a bombshell report emerged about Zendaya and a central Euphoria figure.
