Sydney Sweeney, known for her role as Cassie Howard in the hit HBO series Euphoria, is making waves in the horror genre with her upcoming film “Immaculate.” In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Sweeney revealed how the internet’s reaction to Euphoria season two memes influenced her decision to pursue a horror film project.

Despite already working on “Immaculate” when Euphoria season two aired, Sydney was thrilled to see fans clamoring for her to star in a horror film due to her character’s terrified reactions on the show. She shared, “I already had the script, so I was really excited to see everybody’s reactions to Euphoria season two and everybody being like, ‘A horror film! Give us a horror film!’ I was like, ‘Just you wait! I have something in store for you.’ I held onto it for a long time.”

In “Immaculate,” Sydney takes on a new role in the psychological horror genre, showcasing her versatility as an actress. The film, directed by Michael Mohan and written by Andrew Lobel, boasts a talented ensemble cast including Álvaro Morte, Benedetta Porcaroli, Dora Romano, Giorgio Colangeli, and Simona Tabasco.

The journey to “Immaculate” was a personal one for Sydney, as she had initially auditioned for the role years ago when the project was in its infancy. However, it wasn’t until she became involved in producing that she acquired the rights to the film and secured her place as the lead actress.

Premiering recently at SXSW, “Immaculate” has already generated buzz and anticipation among horror enthusiasts. With its North American release scheduled for March 22 by Neon, audiences can expect to be enthralled by Sydney Sweeney’s performance in this chilling tale of psychological terror.

As Sydney Sweeney continues to expand her repertoire and make bold choices in her career, “Immaculate” stands as a testament to her dedication to the craft and her willingness to explore new genres.
