In a recent conversation with Vanity Fair, Euphoria actor Sydney Sweeney revealed having missed a few projects because of the third season delays. However, this year also introduced Sweeney as a producer, and somehow it worked in her favor. As a producer, Sweeney was able to say, “I don’t think this is happening,” before putting some of her own projects in schedule. The actor went on to explain that this is how her rom-com blockbuster, Anyone But You, came to actualize.

Sweeney recalled Euphoria was supposed to begin production during that time, and besides Anyone But You, the actor had another film to begin with. However, they could not get “cleared,” which made her come to terms with the fact that this cannot keep going, and decided to put her toes fully into the making of Anyone But You. Though Euphoria is actually set to go into production next year, with cancelation denial made by the studios, it looks like Sweeney and the fans were not the only ones thrown under the bus.
