Sweeney, 27, is best known for her role as Cassie Howard in edgy coming-of-age drama Euphoria, as well as starring in The White Lotus, Anyone But You and Immaculate.

Given the sexual nature of her breakout role, the actor appears to be more than comfortable with filming nude – despite the shocked reactions from her family – however, she does wish there was one thing viewers would remember while watching the show.

Sydney Sweeney has shared her thoughts on filming nude scenes as an actor

During a 2022 discussion about how she approaches her work as an actor with The Hollywood Reporter, Sweeney previously revealed that she feels like people sometimes ‘forget’ she’s playing a character, particularly when it comes to her filming without clothes on.

“People forget that I’m playing a character, they think, ‘Oh, she gets naked onscreen, she’s a sex symbol’ and I can’t get past that.,” she explained, seemingly as a reference to the amount of naked scenes she’s filmed as Cassie.

Sweeney then went on to explain that she has ‘no problem’ with shooting nude scenes, but simply wishes the public would change how they view actors who perform them.

“I have no problems with those scenes, and I won’t stop doing them, but I wish there was an easier way to have an open conversation about what we’re assuming about actors in the industry,” she added.

This isn’t the first time Sweeney has spoken about getting her kit off on camera, with the actor previously revealing that she’d found being naked on-screen ‘comfortable’.

Speaking about how intimate scenes are choreographed on shows such as Euphoria, Sweeney explained to Variety and fellow actor Christina Ricci that sets she’s worked on use intimacy co-ordinators.

“We choreograph the whole thing. Sometimes there’s yoga mats that you can put in between each other,” she explained.

“And even if you have agreed to something, they ask you on the spot on the day, ‘Did you change your mind? Because you can.’ It’s really nice. I’ve never felt uncomfortable.”

Sweeney then went on to add that starring in the HBO series had even improved how she felt about herself, adding: “I have weirdly become very confident with my body through Cassie.”

Euphoria is currently filming it’s long awaited third and final season, which will see Sweeney reunite with co-stars Zendaya, Hunter Schafer, Jacob Elordi and Alexa Demie.

Details about the upcoming series are currently thin on the ground, however, Zendaya previously dropped a hint at what fans could expect to see, revealing there would be time jump which would see the younger characters out of high school. “There’s only so much high school drama you can deal with,” she told Entertainment Weekly’s The Awards podcast.
