Sydney Sweeney seems to have no off switch. The star has been on a remarkable rise in the industry over the past few years. Last year, she starred in three movies. While they were ambitious projects, they only brought in moderate box office returns. This year, however, Sweeney is coming back stronger than ever, taking on multiple roles across a variety of genres, potentially making 2025 the biggest year of her career.

For those wondering what is next for Sweeney, here are some of her most exciting projects— in both film and TV— that one should not miss.

Sydney Sweeney is about to step back into the shoes of her most iconic character, Cassie Howard, for the third season of Euphoria. Its filming was reportedly scheduled to start this month, meaning fans will not have to wait too long for her return. In addition to reprising her breakthrough role, Sweeney is also reunited with her Euphoria castmate Colman Domingo for a new project called Scandalous. This biographical drama is expected to start production in the second quarter of 2025. But that is not the only biographical project she is doing.

Sweeney is also starring in a Christy Martin biopic, where she is taking on a completely new persona. The project is expected to release in 2025. Beyond that, the 26-year-old has a slate of thrillers lined up, including The Housemaid, Echo Valley, The Player’s Table, and The Caretaker. The first two thrillers are expected to drop in 2025, while the latter two are still awaiting release dates. But one upcoming project of the Emmy-nominated actress, in particular, is already shaping up to be controversial— the Barbarella remake.

Even the star of the original 1968 Barbarella movie has expressed concerns about Sydney Sweeney taking on the role.

The original Barbarella, released in 1968, has always been a polarizing film. While it became a cult classic years after its release, it was also criticized for its stereotypical portrayal of women. The movie played a major role in making Jane Fonda a '—x symbol,' a label she has repeatedly spoken out against throughout her career. Fonda herself has weighed in on the remake, expressing concerns about the project.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Fonda admitted she was not thrilled about the idea. “I worry about what it’s going to be,” Fonda said, referring to the film’s historically –-ist undertones. That said, some fans also argue that Barbarella was ahead of its time and celebrated —ual empowerment in a way that was bold for the 1960s. There is still hope that Sweeney will bring a modern, feminist touch to the remake—something that could honor the original while making it more relevant for today’s audience.
