Sydney Sweeney might be one of Hollywood’s leading actresses. However, her journey to the spotlight began with some rather humble beginnings. The actress hails from a middle-class American family, and she has time and time again expressed her views on hard work. While the actress clawed her way to where she has reached today, the star noticed that some of her co-stars came from different worlds with families already cemented in the industry.

Ever since Sweeney’s breakthrough role in HBO’s Euphoria, the 26-year-old has been rather open about her thoughts on the industry’s nepo babies.

Last year, Sydney Sweeney sat down with The Sun to talk about her rise to success in Hollywood. She spoke about how her career had taken off since 2019. However, she also revealed that being on the inside had shown her a different side to the industry. Sweeney was talking about the nepo babies like her co-stars, Maude Apatow, and even Dakota Johnson. The 26-year-old revealed that she was surprised by “how many people had connections.”

Sweeney also added, “Now I see how someone can just walk in a door” and leave her feeling like she worked her “f***ing ass off for ten years for this,” and still could not land it. Apart from that, the actress claimed that she was always working to avoid her fear of losing all that she had created for herself. The Handmaid's Tale star may have had a rational fear due to cancel culture taking over social media. However, that does not seem to have happened yet.

Since last year, Sydney Sweeney has taken over the world in a big way. With the release of her rom-com, Anyone But You, the star struck gold as the film ended up being deemed the best rom-com of the year. Although fans expected her fiery streak to continue, it hit a snag when the 26-year-old's Madame Web was released. While the promotions for the film had been well received, the Spider-Man spin-off did not hit the spot. Thankfully, the actress has a chance to change her fate with her upcoming horror film, Immaculate.

The film has been set to release on March 22, which is why fans have spotted Sweeney sporting a new hairstyle. Apart from the suspense drama, she has also been cast in Ron Howard's Eden. While shooting for the project had begun, no release date has been revealed so far. With 2 suspense films and the third season of Euphoria on the cards, there is no doubt that the 26-year-old will have a packed schedule throughout the year.
