Sydney Sweeney Reveals Her Dad And Grandpa Walked Out After Watching Her In X-Rated Role

The actor’s family found some of her Euphoria scenes a bit too intimate to watch

While many parents are supportive of their children’s careers, there are definitely some boundaries they won’t cross.

If you’ve watched Euphoria, you know it’s packed with intense themes like drug use and sex, making it the kind of show most people would avoid watching with their parents.

But what happens when your child is one of the stars?

This was the situation Sydney Sweeney’s family found themselves in.

Sweeney plays a character who has several explicit scenes in the hit HBO series, and while she’s now a rising star in Hollywood, her role in Euphoria came with its own challenges.

She even had to fight harder to land other roles that were different from what people had seen her do on the show.

Speaking to Variety, Sweeney said: “It’s the ones I have to fight for that usually are the ones that I want that are different, like Reality.

“I had to audition for it. I had to put myself on tape and send in my audition just like everybody else.”

She went on to explain how she faced similar struggles when auditioning for White Lotus.

“It was the same for White Lotus. They didn’t think that I was right for White Lotus, because I did Euphoria. So I put myself on tape, I auditioned for White Lotus just like everybody else and had a call back like everybody else.

I could get offered roles that are similar to the ones that I’ve played, but the ones that are different, the ones that surprise people that I do, are the ones that I usually have to fight for.”

Although she had to convince casting directors to see beyond her HBO role, Sweeney’s risqué scenes in Euphoria made it hard for some of her family members to even watch the show.

During an interview on Sunday Today With Willie Geist, Sweeney revealed how her family reacted to her role in the show.

While her mom was more aware of the storyline, some family members, including her dad, were caught off guard.

My mom visited me on set at the time, so she knew the story and I talked to her a lot about it—my dad didn’t,” she admitted. “Yeah, I didn’t prepare my dad. At all.”

Because of this, her dad ended up watching the show without much of a heads-up—and with some other family members. He had no idea what was coming.

“I mean, how do you bring it up in conversation?” she joked. “And also, when I talk to my dad, it’s usually not about work.

“We talk, like, father-daughter conversations. He decided he was going to watch it, without telling me, with his parents.”

As you might expect, not everyone stuck around for the whole thing.

“My dad and my grandpa turned it off and walked out,” Sweeney shared.

“But my grandma is a big supporter of mine. She’s a big fan of mine. Actually, I bring her, usually, all over the world to my different sets and I make her an extra.”

Sometimes, you just can’t win them all!
