Who inspired Sydney Sweeney to take up challenging roles?

Sydney played the role of one of the twin sisters in the film Nocturne.

Moreover, she instantly thought of Natalie Portman, who played the lead role in that film. In fact, she also won the Academy Award for “Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role.”

The Handmaid’s Tale actress thought the story had vibes similar to the Oscar-winning film, as she is a massive fan of the film and Portman. “I think Natalie Portman’s incredible,” she said as she mentioned that she wanted to come out of the character of Cassie Howard. She wanted to do something different and found the role of Juliet a perfect match.
