Emmy Nominated for ‘The White Lotus’, Why Doesn&#8217;t Sydney Sweeney Find Comfort in Similar Roles?

The life and career of Sydney Sweeney
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/sydney-sweeney/] are a perfect mix of hard work
and luck. For example, her amazing performance as the dumb blonde Cassie in
Euphoria became a barrier for her to get the role of a smart person. But then
luck chimed in, and Sweeney played the role of Olivia Mossbacher in The White
Lotus and also earned an Emmy nomination for it. However, the 25-year-old was
scared to play it at first.

In her interview on the Awards Chatter podcast of the Hollywood Reporter,
Sweeney revealed some fascinating facts about her role in The White Lotus. The
actress played Olivia Mosbaccher in the show who is a brainy and sarcastic girl.
The show is a dark comedy and that is a genre Sweeney had never dealt with
before. Hence, the actress was scared to play her role.



The actress said in the podcast, “I for the longest time have been very scared
of comedy.” When the host asked her the reason, she said that she has always
been a part of dramedies like Euphoria and The Handmaid’s Tale or Sharp
Objects. Hence, these kinds of shows have become her comfort zone, and it was
hard for her to break the shell.

Her character in the show was not a likable character, although she received
huge applause from critics and fans for nailing it. But perhaps what she got the
most out of her acting career so far was the chance to star in a romantic
comedy.


SYDNEY SWEENEY WAITED FOR A LONG TIME TO DO A ROM-COM

The Euphoria actress mostly did very serious and emotional roles since the
beginning of her career. However, The White Lotus gave her career a different
direction and Sweeney realized that she was good at comedy, too. In fact, she
and her fans were waiting to see her in a rom-com for a long time.
