Sydney Sweeney Says Her Comments About Working with Euphoria's Sam Levinson Were Misconstrued

Sydney Sweeney is setting the record straight.

Earlier this year, the actress opened up about filming nude scenes and talking to Euphoria creator Sam Levinson about certain scenes that she didn’t feel like they were needed.

“There are moments where [my character] Cassie was supposed to be shirtless and I would tell Sam, ‘I don’t really think that’s necessary here,’” Sydney told The Independent. “He was like, ‘OK, we don’t need it.’”

“I’ve never felt like Sam has pushed it on me or was trying to get a nude scene into an HBO show. When I didn’t want to do it, he didn’t make me,” she added

Now, Sydney says that these comments were misconstrued and she “never asked him to cut any scenes.”

“It got twisted and turned and it became its own beast, and I was like, ‘Oh, my God,’” Sydney told Teen Vogue in a new interview.

“It was more how respectful Sam is and how incredible of a director he is, that he would never make me do something I didn’t feel comfortable with,” she continued.

“I think it’s important to the storyline and the character. There’s a purpose to what that character is going through. That’s the character,” she said about Cassie. “We all get naked in real life. We show this character’s life and what they’re going through. Cassie’s body is a different form of communication for her.”

If you missed it, Sydney and her boyfriend have reportedly taken a huge step in their relationship!
