Sydney Sweeney: Nude Scenes Are An Out-of-Body, Technical Experience
Sydney Sweeney explains that intimate or nude scenes for Euphoria aren’t glamorous: they’re highly technical and uncomfortable to shoot, with intimacy coordinators and protective padding, and actresses aren’t truly nude. She says she feels detached from the characters she’s playing (e.g., Cassie) during these scenes, treats it as character work, and notes a persistent double standard for women in Hollywood that has sometimes hindered her career, though she strives to separate the role from her real life.
